I think I am guilty of this sometimes too, though I never thought of it, but now that you mention it, I can see it as clear as a bell. You are doing so great Sizzle, there is always letting go and loss when we are changing into our best self. Go for it. xoxo

Wow. Yeah– THIS.
I didn’t realize that people were disappointing me because they weren’t acting/doing what I wanted them to for me, for a long while. But how do you stop wanting them to do for you? The answer to that conundrum, I just…I dunno. It is the pitfall in close relationships, but being honest with myself, and not acting or dressing myself up for a part helps alot. I am brutally honest with those close to me, and while it can be deterring, I find that it helps me stay “real”. Maybe it’s not enough, but I guess it’s a start. People-pleasing is easy, it’s feeling inadequate that is the trouble.

I’m babbling, but it expresses a teeny bit of this, for me. Just remember, you are a good and HELPFUL person. You are a source of joy, and people appreciate that.

I’ll be happy to be here with you every step of the way. As you know, I fully admire people that own their own shit and can clearly state that they are acting a certain way while working through this or that.

You are awesome, sister.

I wish my therapist had a couch! Just chairs. But this is so inspiring, doing this is hard. For me, it’s hard to cut out the disease of people in my life because I’m afraid of letting them down, of what they will think. It’s so hard to get that I need take care of myself first.
