We tend to diminish our problems, to think they are not important, while we care more for the rest.

I always put myself last. Physically, emotionally, mentally.
I am trying to make changes to put myself first. It isn't easy. But i have to make a conscious choice to come first.

Take care of oneself is something most people have to work at. The difference between someone that is doing more often than others, is they have made a chose and they make that chose every day to better themselves because that's what they want.

For me, I'm such an absentminded person that I often forget to take care of my basic needs, like showering and eating. It helps to make a checklist or set up alarms to remind yourself

Perhaps you have spent a large part of your life taking care of others or trying to make others happy. It's important to try to try to break that habit. If you truly want to help others, you have to first care for yourself.

I wouldn't say it comes naturally to me. It was definitely learned in my case. I was someone that always took care of others before myself. I realized I was generally, not that happy... then I changed to make self care a priority. It is amazing the difference it has made!

It sounds as though you put everyone else ahead of yourself, which is very easy to do. Remembering to practice self-care is important so that you can be the healthiest version of yourself and be able to continue to give to others.
