    I almost abandoned myself by going into work instead of caring for me. I sent a sick day text. No more self abandoning self care.

      Yes putting yourself first over any felt sense of obligation is a healthy choice, and challenges the people-pleasing martyrdom behaviors.

    Thank you! Terri for the word “self consideration”. I have never heard that concept in such a clear manner. Thank you for helping me get strong enough to stand up to Christian religious circles to stop over-volunteering. My health has really improved by implementing the skills you’ve shared. Blessings to you always. ❤

    I could see a lot of myself in these traits. For me it definitely started in childhood. I have made some progress in this area in the last year or so and will continue to make changes. The changes may rock the boat😉 but it sure feels better being authentic and not abandoning myself as much as I used to. Looking forward to the journal prompts. Thank you so much for this!!!

    This very much hit a button in regards to my husband of many yrs! I’m now in a new relationship where I’m spoiled in such a caring way, and I’m both loving it and feeling a bit uncomfortable. Not in a bad way- but in an unfamiliar way. After listening to you I’m realizing why I feel the discomfort. I’m not used to being put first!

    When my partner gets upset or angry I feel desperate. My fear to let others down or see that they are sad because of me, makes me feel helpless. I know that others reactions and feelings is not my responsibility but STILL I can't give it up. It's exhausting.

    Thank you so much for your amazing work, Terri!
    I follow your channel, IG and the podcast, and definitely resonate with this particular video and have resonated with so much work you put out in the past. I loved your book “Boundary Boss,” and definitely am getting “Too Much” as well.
    I have grown up not even knowing any other way to be but to repeatedly say, do and even think what those around me wanted from me. Anytime I would ever try to say anything to stand up for my views or feelings, it would turn out to be a huge argument/angry debate and I would walk away feeling like I was the problem, feeling shame and toxic guilt. I excelled in school and social life, I was doing absolutely amazing on the outside, but inside I was never happy; I had a few “lows” as a teen, when I would experience an emotional crisis, and at 26 years old I had a major existential crisis, while everyone around seemed to think I was doing amazingly well and checking out all the boxes. It took 8 years of deep, deep emotional,spiritual, and psychological work to realize what exactly happened in my past and who I really am, as well as what my real needs are. I am 34 and I would say I am in recovery from those tendencies, learning to listen to myself, consider myself and treat myself the way I always deserved to be treated. Thank you so much for your work again. This video has come at exactly perfect time as I am working on prioritizing my feelings and views in the smallest every day situations and learning to speak when I have something to say - wether it will feel warm and fuzzy or not really.

      Thank you for being here and sharing your experience with us, Vera (and for reading my books!) ❤️ So many of the people in my crew have had similar experiences where they were made to feel 'wrong' growing up and just internalized it as "I'm the problem." So glad to hear you're in recovery from those tendencies because you are worthy!! ❤️❤️

    As an analyst, do you advise your patients on how to modify their behavior? Or explain family systems to them? I thought that analysis was more passive and less proactive about mundane aspects of life. (I like the phrase: "The family organized around an addict." That says it all.)
