Professional Tips by Therapist for Mental Health

 


Did you know you can be kind and compassionate without sacrificing your boundaries?

๐Ÿšจ If youโ€™re a โ€œpeople pleaser,โ€ this might surprise you! ๐Ÿšจ

It can be tough, especially if people-pleasing behaviors started as a way to cope with emotionally unavailable parents.

Living with emotionally unavailable parents might have looked like:
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Inconsistent behavior and high expectations.
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Only being praised when you were compliant or โ€œeasy.โ€
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Learning that love was something you had to earn through actions.
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Feeling like you had to keep the peace or avoid being a burden.
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿฝ Receiving attention only when you achieve something impressive.

The truth? You donโ€™t have to live this way anymore.

You are worthy of love and validation exactly as you are. ๐Ÿ’•
