I’m doing ENOUGH…

2025/4/22 Edited to

... Read moreIn today's fast-paced world, the pressure to constantly support others can lead to emotional burnout and stress. It's essential to acknowledge your limits and understand that you can only do so much for those around you. Setting boundaries is a pivotal aspect of maintaining mental health and well-being. Establishing healthy boundaries not only protects your time and energy but also fosters healthier relationships. People often feel guilty for stepping back, fearing they might be letting others down. However, recognizing that self-care is not selfish is crucial. Engaging in self-reflection can help you assess whether you're stretching yourself too thin or if you're genuinely interested in helping someone. Learning to say 'no' can be liberating and can encourage others to value your boundaries as well. Additionally, exploring communities that share similar interests, such as #vrchat or #Vtuber, can provide supportive networks where you feel validated and understood. Engaging with groups on platforms like TikTok allows you to find resonance with others, creating a sense of belonging. Prioritize your well-being by seeking balance, nurturing your mental health, and knowing when you've done enough.

Sometimes I’ll be feeling like I’m not doing enough! (Behind the writing)This poem came about because there were moments when I had certain expectations for myself, and sometimes I didn’t meet them. I didn’t always recognize that what I was already doing for myself was enough. Society and eve

🙅‍♀️NEVER attend an exam without doing this first!
📌Prioritize Active Recall Instead of just rereading notes, I quiz myself. It’s hands down the best way to actually remember stuff. Tools like Anki for flashcards are game-changers when it comes to deep learning. 📌Simulate Exam Conditions Exams are full of surprises. So I use Hibay for pre-test
