That person’s bad mood, stress, bad day… are not your responsibility, and do not justify their disrespect or hurtful behavior. Of course supporting someone through real pain, like losing a parent or a situational struggle, is part of love. What I’m talking about is when helping becomes a pattern… when “we need” to fix others to feel needed or secure ourselves. There’s a difference between healthy support and losing yourself in someone’s healing. #codependency #emotionalboundaries #selfawareness #mentalhealthmatters #relationshipadvice #toxicdynamics #healingjourney #innerchildwork #emotionalintelligence #peoplepleasing
