It's not selfish at all. How can you help others if you're disintegrating due to lack of attention?

That's the premise I'm working under...but my martyr programming is having trouble with the concept.

How would one keep their sanity WITHOUT such time to themselves???

Re: errrr mermaidblue January 24 2011, 23:04:27 UTC

LMAO. I've never reserved any time for myself in my life. Perhaps that is part of why I'm stressed and overextended.

Even the idea seems beyond selfish to me, but I'm glad it makes sense outside of my head.

Absolutely seconding this. Self-time is priceless.

You need it. You've earned it. You deserve it.

Look yourself in the mirror and say that. Until you believe it like the rest of us do. *hug*

people who don't take some time for themselves end up kicking puppies and punching clowns. I gently recommend that some of that personal time be spent outside smelling the roses. as it were.

So... it's just a coincidence that you are having trouble with this concept, and simultaneously suffering a low self-esteem issue?

Just sayin'. ;)

Persevere, it'll feel natural soon enough!
