If you've been giving your all to someone who doesn't even remember your birthday, it's time to turn that love inward. This page helps you understand why you hold on and how to start choosing yourself without guilt.
That is genuinely hard. You have given so much, and it hurts to feel unappreciated. It is time to take care of yourself, and you can do this.
It is okay to feel sad or angry. You do not have to pretend for anyone. Cry if you need to, or just sit quietly with your feelings. Do not push them away.
You have been doing too much for too long. It is time to say no. You do not have to take extra jobs or do things that drain you. Tell the person you love that you need space. You do not have to explain why.
Do things that make you happy. Spend time with friends who care about you. Take a walk, read a book, or do anything that brings you joy. You deserve to be happy too.
