Do you feel your boundaries can help you and hurt you?

Your boundaries I think can help protect you as this is where we protect ourselves by putting up walls from previous hurt and bad experiences so they can't be repeated to cause the same hurt.

@W4nderer: you are very right about that. But putting up walls leads to fomo for me lol.. And in the long run isolates and hurts

@Inlovewiththesun: I understand that and people deal with things in different ways. I used to be the sort of person who would hide behind the walls for fear of being hurt or being embarrassed or similar such feelings. Now I'm learning not to hide as much behind the walls but to be out in the open more. There are still times I hide behind the walls because it feels safe.

I have recently learnt to process hurt a lot better and not just bottle it up

If i come out of my boundaries, it would kill the lovable side of me and would also kill the innocence in me, But i would rip apart everyone else to make me go on the best path to be a success!
