"just leave the rest of me.."

I guess what's at the forefront of my thinking is simply, how do you learn to leave enough of yourself for you? I give a lot of my energy, my love, myself to others. I never leave enough for myself..I have a tendency to feel like I'm easily replaced. That's to do with trauma. I try to heal people because I'm broken myself..boost them up when they're feeling low. I find that I'm usually the one saving people, but I never save myself, nobody saves me. I'm trying to start training myself a bit to guard my energy, my heart a bit more. I need it, and I need to start loving myself more.

I think a good place to start is understanding it’s not an all or nothing thing. Chunks of downtime in your day is a good place to start. Trying to train yourself to be intentional with where you give your energy

@Notladylike bit by bit. And try not to be frustrated with it not happening instantly. I understand. Give myself time, be patient.
