um k so these days i have decided to do
things otherwise I need to proportion some
existence training with you men that i have
found out uh being an intense people
pleaser you realize human beings Pleasers they
see the arena sort of differently and
you know why because human beings truly treat
them in another way and that they deal with them
like you already know trash basically yeah if
your humans please are looking this you
know what I mean you understand i have been
bullied my complete existence like in my residence I
was bullied and in college i was bullied
and i'm not talking bullied as in like
oh much like making fun of my appearance
no no i was bodily hit I don't
actually need to enter my bully tale I
uh I assume i can in like an interview
or a podcast that I do if you men are
involved however to offer you men a touch
context like there has been one college that I
became seriously bullied at in which basically
there was this one example that like
the men within the magnificence that used to bully
me they uh instructed this different guy who turned into
additionally getting bullied in my elegance
um to punch me within the face
and i in reality i used to be like simply minding
my commercial enterprise due to the fact i was like simply
depart me on my own you already know i used to be simply doing
my stuff at the computer and then they
they have been actually damn this guy as much as
punch me in the face after which that guy I
knew he did not want to do it however
obviously if you're getting bullied and
then they're pressuring you he came over
and he literally punched me in the face
and i looked at him and glaringly it
hurts so I commenced crying and that i ran to
the predominant's workplace and i used to be like
whilst are you guys gonna assist me like i'm
actually getting bullied at some stage in gym
lessons they just like the men would throw
the basketballs I suggest absolutely hard that
i'd stroll out of the magnificence like
crying and bawling my eyes out but it
wasn't simplest men that was bullying me
girls as well like uh in every other faculty
i used to be going to love for instance these
girls notion it became humorous to roll me up
right into a carpet at some point of gym magnificence and that i
couldn't breathe I literally concept I
was demise i was like please like launch
me i was like yelling and that they couldn't
even listen me I thought at that second I
turned into dying however why i was getting
bullied so much because this female could
now not stand up for herself this lady
actually had no boundaries and i'd
do some thing and the whole thing to simply be
favored by people you already know every now and then you
cannot fit into places due to the fact you have been
supposed to face out and i did no longer comprehend
this I did not healthy in I did no longer because
i used to be no longer like the rest I actually was
the weird one out I did not suppose like
the alternative humans in my class I had a
surely weird information of the sector
so I wanted to constantly dim myself in
order to in shape in with them and that they
didn't like me the issue as nicely was
that at domestic i'd in no way inform my
mother and father
um or my siblings that i was getting
bullied because I I had so many troubles
at home already and uh i really like i was
getting abused at domestic as nicely so I
didn't want to be like the drama toddler
or the child that added like troubles
home you realize so i might similar to you
recognize like suck it up suck it up and
there was one time that my sister
in reality determined out that i used to be getting
bullied due to the fact she went to the college
in which i was like physically hit and
stuff by using the ones guys and
um essentially one of my former classmates
those women she had informed her like oh my
God like you don't know how a good deal your
sister turned into getting bullied in this
school and all these things and my
sister came home and he or she was like
like were you getting bullied and i was
like huh no you recognize i was so
embarrassed and she changed into like why did you
now not inform me and my sister's like the
type of man or woman like she does now not get
bullied you do no longer communicate to my sister
disrespectfully whatever my sister has
this mentality of like i would as an alternative have
people fear me than disrespect me so
humans would now not deal with her the equal way
it turned into brought up in a way that was like
k you are gonna pay attention if you
don't concentrate you will get abused you realize
you acquire bodily abused so for me while
while anyone despite the fact that this day asks
me something and i do not need to answer
or I don't need to do it i go into like
a trans mode and that i answer or I I simply do
what they question me to do because it's it's
like mounted in me you understand it's like
both that or you will get hurt
so I in reality am nonetheless struggling with
this and i am nonetheless going to therapy with
this and that is why i like remedy men
through the way and that is why i am advocating
for therapy therapist is one that instructed
me this isn't always who you're and you
can honestly change this around so it
gave me plenty of desire as properly i am
telling you remedy changed my life
however I do recognise that therapy may be
pretty luxurious and that's why I need to
thank higher health for sponsoring this
video higher help is the world's largest
remedy provider and it's 100 on-line with
higher help you get get admission to to a network
of over 30 000 license and skilled
therapists that permit you to with any
difficulty you is probably dealing with to get commenced
you answer a few questions about your
desires and choices in therapy in order that
better fitness can healthy you with the
proper therapist from the community then
you could speak to your therapist however
you feel at ease whether it is via
text chat telephone or video name you can
message your therapist at any time and
time table live periods whenever it's
convenient for you so if the therapist
you long gone it is now not the right it for you
I
learned being a humans pleaser is
basically people will maintain treating you
like trash until you get barriers for
yourself and you are firm approximately them see
the big difficulty with me turned into
i might assist you to deal with me badly and i
might just forgive you quickly and
it's it like i'd be like oh yeah
you can try this however yet day after today i'm
talking to you once more why am I speaking to
you isn't always that humans are so at ease
pronouncing anything to you however the motive
that humans are so at ease to ask
you anything is because you don't stand
up for your self it is due to the fact you do not
have the courage to say hiya concentrate do
not talk to me like that or hello listen
do now not treat me like that or even whilst
you do say that they recognise that you're
clean to forgive you will like fast be
like oh yeah k it is high-quality and you men
are friends the next day once more no this is
wherein you pass incorrect while you tell a person
howdy pay attention do no longer talk to me like that
and that they nonetheless maintain to do it you do
no longer speak to them you do not cross near them
you shield yourself and your limitations
I distance myself from quite a few humans
that are not willing to satisfy my
boundaries not inclined to meet my
requirements if a member of the family a few own family
individuals i used to be like ok you aren't
inclined to recognize me then depart me
on my own i am now not asking for of loopy matters
i'm inquiring for recognize i'm asking to be
treated like a individual and you're
not able to do this then you're unable to
live in my existence in case you tell a person
that really loves you hey concentrate I don't
sense relaxed whilst you do this to me
I don't sense at ease whilst you say
this to me they'll surely attempt to
alternate it and and make you feel more
at ease however while you say that to a
character that advantages from using you and
you having no boundaries they'll get
offended and they'll be like oh you
alternate now you experience better no I do not
permit you to treat me like anymore
any other thing I found out is forestall making
excuses for humans that deal with you badly
no I don't care about how they are
feeling I do not care about their mental
fate I do not care approximately what they are
going through i used to be going through plenty
of stuff as properly and could display as much as
school and try to be satisfactory to human beings
it is not an excuse
you're one hundred in control of how you deal with
others and if you cannot in case you can't
deal with different human beings properly then you definitely stay
away from humans because there's no
motive that you have to be hurting other
humans because you're harm no way and
there is no motive that you need to be
accepting and making excuse for different
people which can be hurting you because you
think like oh this is unhappy for them but
what approximately you can we ever feel unhappy about
ourselves like it is so desirable and
the whole thing is anybody's like oh you are
so Noble for being concerned about others however
while you care approximately yourself you're
selfish no there may be one girl in my school
yeah and she or he used to bully me so badly
she become like one of the popular women
but she become so imply to me and um she
essentially became to make amusing of my
look might make a laugh of my lips and
then uh basically uh i would continually
think like oh yeah however it's because her
father left her at a young age that's
why she has trauma from that and that is
simply sad and stuff but like you're
sitting there you are getting abused
every day at domestic and also you don't treat
her like that
so why became I feeling empathy for her
when she had no empathy in the direction of me and
why she had no empathy in the direction of
me due to the fact I had no empathy closer to
myself i might as a substitute sense bad for her
than i might experience horrific for myself and
that became my large issue I couldn't put
myself first you are not a awful man or woman
for having boundaries and status up
for your self see I I assume like as well
when i am a people pleaser i've this
belief of like oh no I simply need humans
to like me I I do not need to purpose drama
I do not need to be a burden so i am gonna
do something they question me to do or i am no longer
going to speak up for myself i'm no longer a
bad individual because i've boundaries or
i'm willing to speak up for myself i am
clearly a person that respects myself
because it's not that you're gonna go
available and be a median individual or be
unkind to every person no
whilst any person crosses your boundary and
you're no longer at ease for some thing for
example any individual asks you an
irrelevant question and also you do not
need to answer you are saying hello I opt to
now not solution that query or you simply
completely pass silent and also you don't
solution the question not a horrific man or woman if
you in case you don't answer the query you
know you're no longer a horrific individual for pronouncing
I do not feel secure with this I I
want to honor myself and my own needs
thing I discovered is uh people do not have
the same coronary heart or intentions as you spot
for me i used to be uh continually very isolated
while a kid I didn't have many friends
and constantly like whilst i would have a
buddy or come across them they would do
something to me that turned into completely like
that turned into so horrific after which i used to be like stop
up crying to my mother and stuff and that i
might say like mother why might they do
that i'd by no means try this why might
they try this and i was honestly naive in
my wondering however my mom continuously inform
me people had do no longer have the equal
coronary heart as you human beings aren't similar to
you and i could not understand this
till I grew up and i saw so many poisonous
toxic human beings after which i was like yeah my
mom is right you honestly must get into
the attitude of k other humans are not
like me I can't count on them to act like
me or to do like or to not do matters
that I wouldn't do no you need to be
capable of be given that k they may do
matters that I do not like and and that they
will go limitations however then how do I
react to it how do I permit them to treat
me that's the query you ought to ask
your self due to the fact you have power over
which you do not have power approximately how they
are or how they deal with you however you do
have power over how what you allow and
how you react it's miles a big deal like maximum
of the time while you are a human beings
pleaser people will tell you when you
get angry or some thing or they cross
your boundary or anything that you are
overreacting like it's not that large of a
deal no it's miles if it's miles a huge deal to you
what do they realize how can they sense your
feelings you're for your body in case you
felt hurt by this or you felt that that
became no longer the manner they need to have been
handled then you definitely yeah it really is honest tell
them no it is a massive deal i'm hurt through
this I do not care what you sense because
you don't feel what I sense proper now you
don't experience the hurt that I feel proper
now so honor your feelings listen to
them if you are harm then yes it is a
huge deal they have got hurt you it doesn't
be counted how small the state of affairs may
have been do not allow them to Gaslight you
into telling you what what you experience is
right or incorrect no yourself first-rate
you recognize your feelings if this hurts you
then it hurts you and you could honor that
every other aspect I found out is to look at
humans's actions and no longer what they inform
me see in existence i would listen quite a few oh
this i love you until i love you constantly
i'm your fine buddy this and that and
then i was like each person claims to like
me however I do not sense loved through all of us
and it is continuously like you need to
look at the way to treat you do they treat
you nicely do they treat you with admire
do they certainly say to you like good day Liz
if i'm gonna try this for you do they
really do it if you want them do they
certainly show up observe their moves
do no longer observe what they let you know
because i'm telling you I promise you
human beings will put phrases in your ears like
like it'll be magical like a whole
musical they may make of it and if you
believe anything then you will be easily
manipulated and you will cross down like
years and years maybe even stuck in a
relationship because they preserve promising
you stuff no take a look at how they're
treating you
what is it that they are actually doing
how are they making you experience that is
maximum vital do now not examine phrases I do
no longer believe words I believe movement you have got
to begin asking people once they ask you
something that you didn't like or
some thing or they do some thing which you
did not like then you need to start
asking why did you feel secure to
say that to me or why did you sense
secure to do this to me
I begin asking this question and you
realize why initially you'll begin to
understand maybe they will truly supply
you an evidence as to why or perhaps
you gave they may say you gave off this
Vibe or something so that you can actually
have a look at yourself and be like k next
time maybe like I need to actually
change that so people don't do not do
that once more you recognize or they may experience
truely embarrassed by means of what they did and
they'll now not provide an evidence and
then you can also see like whoa this
individual does not have the right
intentions with me but ask people why
they did what they did to you any other
factor is begin asking your self am I
doing this for me or am I doing this for
a person else like for example I one time
I had like this one friend and she
basically were assembly up and stuff and
she changed into essentially like gonna bring me to
this man that I did not want to go to and
I informed her already I I do not experience
comfy with this character but like
whilst i was on my manner she become telling me
we are going some other place then i was on
my way to the auto and then she calls me
she's like yeah we are gonna go to this
man after which i used to be like i used to be like
greatly surprised and that i failed to want to mention
something so I simply closed the cellphone then
I called my other friend after which i was
like yeah she's telling me to move there I
don't know what to do after which she changed into
like what do you want to do and then
i was like I do not need to head there I
don't need to visit this man and then
she became like ok then you definately cross domestic so
then i used to be like yeah you're right so
then I referred to as the buddy i used to be like i am
not coming after which I instructed like uh the
driving force to head home so then i am at home
and then I started to expand this
mentality of like ok am I doing this
for me or am I doing this for a person
else due to the fact if I had went i might have
went due to the fact she wanted to you understand but
whenever I say yes to something after I
really need to say no i'm pronouncing no to
myself
and what is going to appear down the line is I
becomes so insecure due to the fact i am
constantly placing list down in other for
other humans to experience correct and
comfortable but how does that make me
makes me this massive and small and then in
like destiny and stuff i'd be afraid
to talk up for myself so no if now i am
questioning like ok they are asking me to
do this do I want to do that
um no okay I may not do it like actually
you need to start thinking that simple
do matters whilst while you sense like it is
top for you do them whilst you do not feel
like it aligns with you and your motive
you do not do them regardless of what they
say regardless of what they want you to do
do now not push yourself all the way down to make
a person else cross up it's now not your job to
restore them see me I continuously want to
help humans ever since i used to be younger I
need to help anyone like if if you
come to me with like whatever I keep in mind
like even one time like I literally my
ultimate money there has been like this home soon
that got here as much as me I had no money and
this changed into like my ultimate money and turned into like
yeah please I want it like i've a son
this and that and i was like yeah yeah
she wishes it more than me so I gave my
ultimate money to her however I did not have any
money you recognize however then it become like you
understand what everything was i was so
relaxed with like a disrespecting
myself and what I need in order to assist
different humans and that is not precise that
isn't always good and every so often I absolutely
trust that God like makes humans move
thru stuff due to the fact this is their course
you can not intrude you can't beat
hero and attempt to assist them due to the fact you're
intervening God's plan for them stay in
your lane now and again you do not need to
help human beings it's no longer your process it's it is
your job to attend to you it is your
process to attend to you it's k if
they do not like you people no longer absolutely everyone
will like you you are aware of it's like it is
regular that humans do not like if human beings
have extraordinary pastimes human beings they
they do not care a few human beings are simply
general haters you recognize
if you don't have pals it's best
every so often you can not in shape in some thing
because you are at the incorrect place the
incorrect humans are surrounding you maybe
you're just an intense humans pleaser
and those are just like taking
advantage of you want my difficulty so it is
okay you do not have to be favored by means of them
do you even like them that ask your self
do i love them no maximum of the
time you will not like those human beings that
are taking benefit you or anything so
why do you want them to like you you
do not need your validation you have to
begin validating your self you know and
specifically also if you're on social
media and you're scared that humans will
not like you some thing people hate some
human beings hate on absolutely everyone such as you cannot
make all and sundry like you assist you to you've got
to accept this my pal she instructed me
this she was like concentrate there is
actually YouTube motion pictures of cats yeah
seize this plane and you may see hate
remarks beneath that like a few humans are
simply sour allow them to be bitter it's ok
if they do not like you do not show
yourself the best man or woman you need to
show yourself to is your self do not
allow anyone and all of us to get near
to you or to get to know you it is
really a luxury to recognise you it is how
you need to consider yourself in existence
distinct things are extra valued it truly is
why you have got when you have unique
brands excessive-stop manufacturers they are they're
like for a positive organization handiest and
they are very exceptional they may be at a very
high fee due to the fact they're not for
every body now not everyone can have enough money to be
around them you have to see your self
that manner if you simply allow anyone and
all and sundry to come in like what are you a
trash collector in case you just permit
everybody and anyone to return close to you
or to get to understand you human beings additionally
understand which you are a person without
barriers because you have no
boundaries of who you share your power
with that's so sacred you understand you are
a sacred uh Divine being so defend
your self protect yourself from positive
humans in case you sense that there may be a A vibe
this is off ok do not do not get too
in the direction of them do not let them get close
to you like follow your instinct a
little bit approximately people it's lots greater
vital to have quality over amount
in recent times i have like one pleasant buddy I
have my sister who's my fine buddy and
i'm very glad with that I do now not go
round making masses and lots of buddies
and then like I do not need to be in
drama or like a popularity issues or
like several this gossip no I don't want to
I want to shield my power I want to
maintain my electricity for the human beings that I
love for the humans that I respect
and love me as nicely exercise announcing no
without explaining yourself an excessive amount of see
you sometimes in case you do not need to move
someplace if you don't need to exit
you may simply say like no I don't sense
adore it on your friends you
don't ought to constantly like give a
complete reason why or make something up or
considered one of your 10 grandmas died you know no
now and again you simply should be I do not
experience like it I don't sense nicely no simply
no easy no it's k to mention no and
human beings that actually love you may not
get offended by way of that they will certainly
appreciate it and be like ok nice
we'll inform you if there may be whatever that
you want simply let them recognise or in case you
need to speak simply allow them to understand but if
you want space then that's absolutely up to
you i recently as nicely began
practising saying no uh to buddies and
circle of relatives and honestly there's actually
nothing that become wrong with that they
failed to give me any loopy blowout like I
thought it might be or they would hate
me no on no account they're much like k
quality like it's that simple humans are
literally like okay
they don't care so get that out
of your head then it'll be a big drama
it'll not simply practice practice
announcing no yeah I comprehend it's it is a bit
hard and toddler steps and i that as well
however it allows very critical is as well
to have time to reconnect with yourself
see me due to the fact i am incredibly touchy I
actually need a whole lot of alone time to
connect with myself to actually hug
myself and be like that is gonna be ok
and literally make me sense like i'm
interior of my body and floor myself
due to the fact quite a few instances when i am around a
lot of human beings I pick out up on their
energies and like you already know when you you
try to assist them you do that and and that i
can not assist it like proper as though right now
I nonetheless can't manipulate it my my
continuously seeking to assist
um however it's very draining so then i am going
into isolation mode because I want to
get over all that however now i've
found out that I need time to reconnect
with myself I need time to do matters
that i really like and contend with my myself
in order so that I also can be you recognize
presentable for different human beings and i simply
clearly experience like spending time with
myself I enjoy spending time with my cat
he helps me plenty with my feelings
um I just revel in doing things by myself
and mastering myself higher so
have time to do that like literally
now and again you sit in spite of yourself and
simply
stare at a wall allow your mind glide
write down magazine meditate these types of
things it's very lovely and last but
now not least is forgive your self for the
past times you've let the humans treat
you badly because truely
it is k like we are all studying it is
no longer your fault like if we did not go
via that we would not have the
wisdom right now on how to handle it and
i am clearly very very grateful for
the whole lot I went thru because it
made me so smart like literally I understand a
lot approximately humans I realize lots about like
how to take care of conditions so i'm virtually
thankful for that
um it is k like I forgive myself
there's no point in being indignant at
your self you know my uh my therapist she
advised me this due to the fact i used to be actually
like i used to be telling her like yeah all
this I cannot prevent human beings beautiful and i
became getting absolutely angry at myself and
she turned into like Liz the anger is not gonna
assist due to the fact yet again you have become
angry at your internal baby who was
manipulated into questioning that the simplest
manner she would receive love become if she
did regardless of the different man or woman asked and
once more you're abusing her by means of getting
angry at her and she or he became like she
would not want more anger she needs love
and that is when I found out like yeah
you are surely proper I need to be
extra kinder to myself I need to be more
gentle with myself and forgive myself
for the ways i've allowed other human beings
to deal with me and the most effective manner i will do
now is look forward and feature boundaries
and make sure people do not treat me like
that and step by step
get wherein I want to get it takes a lot
of exercise like literally i'm status
here nowadays i'm the wizardless i have
millions of fans and nonetheless nowadays I
have human beings appealing inclinations I even
had like these days a fan come up to me

identical day as properly I had like uh a few
character that I knew asked me a few surely
inappropriate questions that I simply
