Caring without crossing boundaries

goood question bc i luv helping ppl but i get burnout a lot and usually it's one sided. so i check my schhed to see if it's complicated or simple, do i have tie 4 other people rite now? i might just break up my day by helpng 1 person and then get back to my own stuff and decide later if i wanna do more. tbh i realized it's not selfish 2 step back and look after myself, it actually makes me feel better. & i'm way less resentful of others taking taking taking cuz i'm including my needs too.

Yeah, thanks a lot for sharing that, honestly-really appreciated it.

I guess it really depends on the person you're trying to help, right? Some people are super needy and can wear down anyone who's trying to assist them.
You know, it's kind of like that safety announcement on a plane where they tell you to put your oxygen mask on first before helping others. I think this is important when considering if you're getting too burned out from helping. Maybe it's okay to step back if someone needs more help than you can give at the moment?

Thanks for sharing those awesome thoughts-it's always great to hear what others have to say!
