Dear OrangeHeart:

“I feel like I can’t do things I’d like to because I worry how its going to affect other people… I just don’t want my time to be ruined by other people“-

– I think that the following two suggestions will help to lower your stress level: (1) Minimize or eliminate your contact with difficult people such as your sister. Don’t try to please her. Instead: stay away from her.

(2) Spend more alone-time, go places on your own.

What do you think?
