“Pay attention when people react with anger and hostility to your boundaries You have found the edge where their respect for you ends”. - Sweatpants and Coffee dot com

“At first you will probably feel selfish guilty or embarrassed when you set a boundary. Do it anyway and tell yourself you have a right to self-care. Setting boundaries takes practice and determination. Don’t let anxiety or low self esteem prevent you from taking care of yourself.” - Terri Cole

Tips for boundary setting:

Identify your boundaries. Take the time to get to know what you will and will not accept.
Don't apologize or over explain. You don’t owe them shit.
Watch for line crossers. Meet the resistance.
Practice practice, practice. Start small at first. Inlist people you trust.
Let go of guilt. Because I said so!
Saying NO means saying yes! Be free to say YES to the things that excite you
