Agreeing to things just to keep the peace is actually a trauma response, disrespecting your boundaries. You have control now, run your life, take up space, and use your voice. Decline invites kindly, prioritize your needs without guilt. Prior conditioning may lead to neglecting needs, but it's crucial to stand up for yourself.
The upbringing where personal needs were neglected, and emotions dampened for others' comfort, impacts the ability to set boundaries. Trauma from past experiences can result in internal conflicts when prioritizing self-care. Accepting and communicating one's limits is crucial for maintaining mental well-being and healthy relationships.
