Prioritize selfcare from "summary" of Women with Controlling Partners by Carol A Lambert
When you are in a relationship with a controlling partner, it is easy to lose sight of your own needs and well-being. It can feel like you are constantly walking on eggshells, trying to avoid conflict and keep your partner happy. However, it is crucial to remember that taking care of yourself is not selfish – it is essential for your mental and emotional health.
Prioritizing self-care means making yourself a priority in your own life. It means setting boundaries with your partner and taking time for yourself to relax, recharge, and do things that bring you joy. This might involve saying no to your partner when you need some space, or taking a break from the relationship altogether if it is causing you more harm than good.
Self-care also involves taking care of your physical health. This means getting enough sleep, eating well, and exercising regularly. It also means seeking help from a therapist or counselor if you are struggling with your mental health. Remember, you deserve to feel happy and healthy, and taking care of yourself is the first step in achieving that.
It is important to remember that you are not alone in this journey. Reach out to friends, family members, or support groups for help and guidance. Surround yourself with people who uplift and support you, and who encourage you to prioritize your own well-being.
By prioritizing self-care, you are not only taking care of yourself, but you are also setting an example for your partner. You are showing them that you value yourself and that you deserve to be treated with respect and kindness. Remember, you are worthy of love and happiness, and taking care of yourself is the first step in achieving that.
