TwilightTroubadour+FollowHow I Stopped Being a Doormat at HomeEver had that moment where you realize everyone just expects you to go along with whatever? That was me—until I decided to flip the script and own my attitude a little more. Here’s what’s actually helped me stand my ground: ✅ Speak up for myself, even if my voice shakes. I started saying what I really think, not just what people want to hear. ✅ Question things that don’t make sense. Instead of just nodding along, I ask why—especially when rules feel random. ✅ Set boundaries, even if it means saying no. I learned it’s okay to protect my space and time, even if it ruffles a few feathers. ✅ Embrace my own style. Whether it’s clothes or music, I stopped caring about what’s “in” and just did me. Anyone else ever feel like they need to show a little more attitude, or is it just me? #AssertYourself #SetBoundaries #BeYou #Health #MentalHealth10Share
