You did the hard thing. So why do you feel like a monster?
In this episode of My Brain’s a Mess (And That’s Okay), we unpack the emotional backlash that often follows a brave boundary. You said no. You spoke your truth. You protected your peace—and now your brain is spiraling with guilt, self-doubt, and what-if scenarios.
If you’ve ever wondered why setting boundaries feels like losing control instead of gaining it, this one’s for you. We’ll break down the nervous system’s reaction to change, especially for those who fawn, people-please, or grew up equating self-sacrifice with safety.
In This Episode, You’ll Learn:
Why boundaries can feel worse before they feel better
How guilt, fear, and self-doubt show up after a healthy “no”
Tools to ride the emotional wave without collapsing or apologizing
