How to please yourself without being a people-pleaser?
| So, wait, this isn't about jerking off?
| you don't have to be a people-pleaser if you never see anyone and spend all day inside hiding from people...
| Have you tried a psychiatrist? They can help you with stuff like this.
| You gotta create boundaries, mang. It's hard, but having them helps prevent being taken advantage of.
And see a therapist too, they are trained in this kinda stuff
| Honestly I've consider going to therapy but it's still costy af in this country. Well, there's a cheap one, subsidised by the govt, but the downside is that I need parents/guardian acknowledgement regardless how old the patient is, sigh

That's fucked. What do you do if you're 70 and your dad died 23 years ago and your 99 year old mom is senile and in a home?
| That's the thing! A friend already tried em and yeah, a total failure.
>>315293 mmmm yeah, I mean, mom doesn't like the idea of going to therapist (even she said she'd rather send me to jail if I try to cut, like, no shit sherlock). My father always go "bear with it".

| I have been people-pleaser as long as I remember. It was fine until there's "no one or nothing to please". Whenever I do things for myself, it feels vacant and pointless. It's like "if I do things for no one then there's no point on doing it. Both what I do and myself are pointless" most of the time. How to deak with it? I just want to do things for myself.
