generally, people always give the advice of putting yourself and your needs first. why is it that when i do it, i’m being selfish and purposely making like harder for everyone?
honestly i’ve been thinking so immaturely lately, i don’t know why.
i’m upset right now, actually. this whole week has been kind of hard, between balancing school assignments, some home finances, house work, doing just about anything that my mom doesn’t want to do and spending my mornings in waiting rooms while she does some exercises has been a bit much. finally, today i decided i’d work all afternoon on my own work i need to get done but everyone keeps asking me to do things for them and to help them and it’s FRUSTRATING that i have to help everyone but nobody wants to help me with anything.
i don’t know, it feels like i’m throwing a tantrum

that sounds awful. I’m sorry that those people are following double standards like that. your frustration is beyond valid, as is your stress. it sounds like you have a lot on your plate.
You should focus on yourself and get where you want yo be in your life. Nothing selfish about putting yourself first. Everyone seems to be taking advantage of you and they cant give you any space in return. Let alone support/Help.
It’s okay to say No.
