you are not obligated to

mel-0phobia:

thehomoschedule:

  • be someone’s counselor and help them with all their problems if its bad for your mental health
  • be there for someone 24/7
  • remain friends with someone who emotionally drains you
  • maintain negative relationships because you’ve been close for so long, because you’re related, or anything else
  • do anything that makes you unhappy or puts your health at risk

This is so so so important and I took far too long to realise it and I know it’s tricky but cutting people out who aren’t good for you is the best thing you can do for yourself
