A doormat is someone who neglects their own needs to fulfill others' desires, often out of fear of offending, disappointing, or angering someone. If you identify with this, here are a few helpful tips:

🤝 Talk to loved ones.

Share your feelings and problems with someone who won’t judge you and can analyze the situation rationally.

🕒 Don’t rush or judge yourself.

If you’ve lived this way for years, it won’t change overnight. Be patient with yourself as you work through this behavior.

👥 Build the right circle of people.

Surround yourself with those who encourage you to move away from the "grin and bear it" model and embrace your authentic self.
