Week 5: Respect My Space

So, this week has been up and down and I am really doing my best to keep my head up and breathe through the chaos. This week I am reminding myself that:

(Megan Thee Stallion Voice from Savage) “I'm that bitch, Been that bitch, still that bitch
Will forever be that bitch”

And to let myself breathe. I do have my soft moments. My therapist said I need to work on boundaries, and I am realizing that I need to learn how to enforce them. I’m getting better with expressing where my boundaries are but I’m learning that the next step is enforcing them. So that is my project, I’ve been getting overwhelmed lately and I know its from things I can change or at least attempt to change.

What I am going to do is meditate for 10 mins. I am going to give myself the space to do so and express my boundaries to my boyfriend and enforce them, so he respects them. They say boundaries are for you, but they never say what enforcing them looks like. My therapist explained to me that I can find a middle ground since I seem to be on one end of the spectrum or the other.

I know I’m too cool for letting certain things get to me, but your girl is human. And I am allowed to be human.

You guys be safe, drink your water, get your sunshine, and always give yourself the time the space and the grace.
