This is one of the most thoughtful posts I’ve read on mental health and mindset—well done.
As someone who’s worked through perfectionism and people pleasing myself, your message really hit home.
If anyone reading this is also struggling with overthinking, people pleaser recovery, or how to be confident, I highly recommend a stop overthinking book I recently published on Amazon.
It’s helped readers learn how to be confident, protect their peace, and live unapologetically—especially those recovering from perfectionism and overthinking.
The full title is Let Them Think What They Want: Stop Overthinking, Build Confidence, and Set Boundaries Without Guilt – available on Amazon here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F7G48V3H
