Yes, you are kind and respectful to others. Yes, you care about their feeling. Yes, you try to make them happy with your efforts. There is nothing bad in it. . But what if your this habit becomes obsession. And that destroys your own self-esteem and mental health. Starting from frustration, to feeling helpless in expressing on thoughts and opinion. It all happens when you ignore your own happiness for people. Be kind always to people but not at cost of your own self-esteem. Set boundaries and stick to them, that's a fair deal. Moreover, you don't need to prove your worthiness to every person. We can't satisfy all of them. So it's good to set the boundaries and never drop the head.

It's OK


Many of us still be feeling anxious, because fear causes anxiety. Plus we are slightly coming out of an anxious period which means our minds & body's will still be trying to recover from all the major stress we all went through when, our countries had a wave of covid, went into restrictions, had to home school & work (I mean what in the world!) Couldn't see friends & family etc.

We don't just wake up the next day & brush all that off like it was nothing. It was something, it was & is still a time not for the benefit of our mental health so you are allowed to still feel upset, stressed coping & anxious.


Just like when restrictions started & you might have felt like you were trapped now, it took time to adjust to that new way, coming out of that can feel the same, but try to grab the freedom it will feel OK again soon.

You may not feel like going to work or socialising, & that's normal because it will feel new, but humans need interaction, to move & feel part of a community. Going out will feel strange but that's not a reason not to, what could you enjoy?

Its completely normal to have put on weight, we lost our usual coping mechanisms & found solice in food, drink etc to cope, plus couldn't move much. That's normal, but not something we want to keep doing, give yourself a break, talk to others, many people have put on weight. As you get back to some normality you'll feel better.


Try not to worry about getting ill, you are doing all you can & that's all you can do, try to boost your immunity by eating well, gentle exercising, journal your fears, try to live your life. What would your 80 year old say to you? Do what you can & grab your life.

Take the pressure off of yourself, try not to see this as pressure to go out, more like I get to go out, what could I do that would be good for me, or that I might enjoy? 


Good Luck❤️
