The "Oldest Daughter" Syndrome.

If your brain feels like a browser with 50 tabs open (see my last post!), it might be because you’ve been the "Project Manager" of your family since 1995. Being the oldest daughter isn’t just a birth order; it’s a personality trait built on hyper-responsibility. Who else is currentl

Dear Oldest Daughters,

Let people help you. You don’t have to do everything on your own or for yourself. It’s ok to cry, or fall a part. You’re not weak if you do. Your siblings are not your children even if you helped to raise them. Unburden yourself from Parenthood. There’s a reason you’re so good at leadershi

Survival tips for the oldest daughter

I am the oldest and I live with my family. I used to think I only had value based on what I could provide to others, until I became so depleted of resources and shut down. As much as anxiety has felt like a curse, in many ways it helped save me from giving everything to everyone else but me #o

Surviving the pressures of being the oldest. 🌿

Are you the oldest? If so then you know the expectations are high! As the first born you’re held to a higher standard, the trail and error kid. If you’re like me, you’re probably an over achiever right? You probably do things and make sure someone is looking so that you can receive that praise.

Oldest Daughter POV

Being the oldest daughter in a family is unpaid labor at this point. Babysitting, chores, emotional support and it’s all just “expected.” Do any other eldest daughters feel this way? #AskLemon8 #LetsChat #FamilyTalk #lemon8contest
