When do i get to stop making everyone else happy?

When you make the decision that you come first and foremost. It can be tempting to want to please everyone because when everyone is happy It's easier on you, but that isn't always true. It's actually more detrimental because you sacrifice your happiness for others. How can you take care of someone else if you're not okay? You need someone to be there for you too. You need you. Its easier said than done but maybe you could try doing at least one thing that makes you happy everyday?

You can't be of help to anyone if you don't take care of yourself first. It's okay to be selfish and focus on your needs, especially if pleasing everyone else is at the risk of your own happiness.

Acting in a manner that spreads positivity to others is a choice that can simultaneously provide an inner happiness for yourself. However limiting yourself in order to make others happy can have a negative impact within your own life so finding a balance is key

You are NEVER responsible for someone else's happiness. If they tell you that they feel better when you wear makeup, then that's their opinion. If it hurts you to put on makeup don't do it. Their happiness doesn't depend on you and you are not required to make them happy over your happiness

When you are happy with yourself and with what you do then you stop making everyone else happy. Focus on your happiness first then others. You are what matters.

I've seen this question a lot and the simple answer is: you were never required to make anyone happy other than yourself. You are the only person who will help you in the end, and you're your biggest fan. All that matters is that you're making yourself happy. But, do take caution: if you're hurting the others around you, try doing something else to make yourself happy. Safety is meant for everyone, and that's one thing you shouldn't risk for your own happiness. Sounds totally contradicting from what I just said, right? Happiness and safety go hand in hand, and one does not come without the other 90% of the time. So please, keep yourself and others safe.

Of course, helping others is admirable. It's a beautiful thing to see humans caring for one another and putting the needs of others before their own. It's a testament to brotherhood and to mankind. But what happens when your selflessness becomes an innate characteristic of yourself? There will come a point in your life (and hopefully, that point is right now) when it's imperative that you learn how to stick up for yourself and learn that to be selfish for the well-being of the self is, in fact, acceptable. As you become more of an adult with more to lose and less time to spend on this Earth, you must become stronger and more confident in expressing how you feel.

There will be a point in time you realize you can't make everyone happy - it's better to hear it now, even tho, experience will eventually bring you to a point of learning on how to put your happiness before everyone else's all the time, and avoid fulfilling each request they may have. Perhaps, it will happen by reaching a point in which you NEED to take some time for yourself and recover. You can't control how others react - it's their problem. Feel at ease with yourself and rest easy!

Making people happy can bring yourself much happiness, however it is time to stop making EVERYONE else happy if doing so is making yourself unhappy. There are times when you have to make yourself the priority. Do things that you want to, do things that is meaningful to you, do things that adds value to your life. If pleasing everyone else is stopping you from achieving your own happiness, it is probably time for you to stop doing that, reflect and find out what can make you happy again.

When you realize that your well-being is more important than pleasing others. By placing others' needs above yours might indicate that you care deeply about how others view you.
