Setting Boundaries: Why Some People Struggle and How to Overcome It

In the wise words of Dr. Demetria McNeal, boundaries are an intriguing concept. 🎎 They're not just lines we draw in the sand, but rather, they're a reflection of our personal responsibility.

Those who set and respect their own boundaries rarely have issues when others do the same. It's a sign of understanding that we are all the masters of our own lives. 🧘‍♀️

However, those who often blame others for their circumstances or make excuses for their actions, tend to struggle with boundaries. It's a hard pill to swallow when someone holds you accountable for your actions, especially when you're used to avoiding responsibility.

When someone reacts negatively or even cuts off communication, it's often because they're grappling with the consequences of their own actions. It's tough, but sometimes, you have to let them sit with it. 🍵

It's natural to feel guilty or question if you've crossed a line, especially when it involves close relationships. But in those moments, it's crucial to remember what life was like before that boundary was set.

Boundaries aren't just about keeping others out, they're about letting responsibility in. So, set them, respect them, and watch as they transform your relationships and your life.
