Part of my longtime personal healing work was to forgive myself for spending too much time, trying to explain myself, to folks who were committed to not wanting to understand who I am. I have a hard time forgiving myself for allowing others to treat me as lesser than & not embracing my own self worth enough. It's something I had to work on for a long time & I still make errors with this when super low on spoons.
Being devalued by people you care about, never feels good. Walking away from people you care about, who devalue you, doesn't feel great either but you can reclaim your self worth more, afterwards.
