this may be a weird question, but if I choose to take time to play video games, or watch my shows. Does that count as self care?

though i agree with you often times taking care of yourself is seen as ignoring or not caring for those you've surrounded yourself with bc they've become accustomed to that level of care/affection

The thing that sucks about when you start doing this is people will get mad, disappointed, sad, leave, etc. You're not longer able to push yourself and show up like you did. They don't like your new-

Another good thing to note, all the people that fall away soon as you choose yourself never cared enough about you to begin with.

I hate myself/view myself as worthless. so by default everyone else's lives are more important to me. I try to like myself I try to be better but I always regress and that's why I can't stand who I am

Working on the self care/self love aspect. I have always put other people first, and myself last. Also working through chronic people pleasing mentality. Always done this since childhood. 😔

Not the same level, you need to care more about yourself than the others

It’s tough. Because I give and give and give. And I just HOPE someone will do the same for me. I know now how that’s not healthy (or logical) and I’m lucky enough to have a partner who understands…☹️

I was raised by a family who prioritize others emotions and if I ever tried talking about myself or feelings then I'm a bad person. I realized that. I'm currently trying to love myself and do better.

Spent most of my life caring for others over myself. It’s hard. i’ve neglected my health and my own needs for toooo long. I made the choice and lost people, because i wasn’t available when i would be.
