Loved this post! I myself simply avoid people that are too stressed or too negative. At work, I have a work colleague that is like that though, so for lunch time I choose to have my break alone as as don not want anyone to disturb my happiness or good mood. Maybe selfish but my state of mind is too precious to be surrounded by negativity.

It's definitely an important way of looking out for yourself. x

It's all definitely a learning process. I find that I have to check in with myself once in a while to make sure I set those healthy boundaries- otherwise I wouldn't get any sleep with overthinking not only mine, but everyone else's problems, too (no matter how small, haha!)

Thank you so much, Diana! I knew this became a problem for me when I'd worry about the things someone else is going through, more than they were, haha! It can be difficult to be a really good friend when instead of lifting the other person and cheering them up or offering a positive outlook, you give in to the stress and anxiety and let it take over.
