#healthy interaction

Especially as the holidays are upon us, remember your boundaries. Remember that "No, thank you" is a complete sentence. You don't owe anyone explanation or justification for enforcing your boundaries. You are not obligated to make yourself uncomfortable for the sake of "festivity!" or "family!" or anything else, and you are not obligated to make yourself uncomfortable just to make anyone else's life easier. You are not a burden for taking care of yourself, and you are not a bad person for saying no.
