I’ve always prided myself on the ability to be consistent. Generally, when I say I will do things, I tend to do them.
Whilst this is a rather positive trait to have, I’m also starting to see where it can fall into unhelpful behaviours too.
I’m someone who wants to make space for people in my life and be available for them. It’s only become evident recently how difficult I find it to say no if someone wants to see or do something with me. I quickly feel guilty if I turn people down, and the feeling of guilt can hit me pretty hard.
