If you’re a people pleaser, “let me think about that” is one of your best allies.
Because your impulse is to go along with the other, often at your expense, remind yourself that you don’t need to give a response on the spot.
Take your time to ensure your choices match your values

People pleasing often looks like kindness on the outside, but underneath it is usually fear of conflict, fear of rejection, or a long history of needing to stay safe by staying agreeable, and over time it quietly disconnects you from your own needs and limits.

If this resonates, pause and notice where you say yes when your body wants to say no, and ask yourself whose comfort you are protecting right now, yours or theirs.

When your sense of worth depends on how others respond, it becomes harder to hear your own voice, trust your instincts, or feel steady in your choices, and this often shows up quietly in therapy as self doubt, second guessing, and fear of getting it wrong.

I tried to share this on other socmeds, but maybe the fediverse sees my vision.

Official theme song of Therapists for people pleasers:

(funny enough this is also the theme song of one of my OCs who uses those skills to get people into drugs and worse. I like that this song can be interpreted in completely different ways)
