It's good to hear and affirm the importance of boundaries and respecting our own needs. It's not selfish to put yourself first. I do experience how people try to make you feel guilty, people in my family also create untrue gossip causing others to take a disliking to others in which has caused friction and distance between people, and sadly it has caused people to question if they are are truly genuinely loved. These types of people want to be in control of you, you cannot have your own opinions or be yourself around them if it takes the lime light off them. You can not be more liked than them it makes them jealous and inspires them to break down your world more and destroy your connection with others because it empowers them. They want to be always be at the top, be more noticed and be more recognised they need all the attention. They behave like they are more of a superior being than anyone living on this earth. When all you want to do is put your own needs and health first. You create your own life balance and you are entitled to be who you are and not for others to own and be in control you and who you want to be. There should be no guilt of shame to give what you need to ourselves.
I agree that dissolving these toxic relationships is a remedy to our suffering, we do not have to continue to live and surrender outselves to others. I choose to take control of my own space, my own health and my own happiness. Thank you for this talk I appreciate you. 🙏🏽 🙂
