Navigating family drama can be overwhelming, especially for those who are the designated peacemakers. The article emphasizes the importance of setting boundaries and recognizing that one doesn't have to respond to every complaint or issue. While it is noble to want to help, constantly being available can lead to personal stress and burnout. It encourages individuals to reassess their roles within family dynamics and take necessary breaks to protect their mental health.
To hang onto your sanity, let go of the idea that you need to jump into action every single time someone complains or asks for help. Stop being available to your family 24/7.
Being stuck in the middle of family drama is the worst, especially if you're used to everyone dumping their angst on you. You aren't sure what to do about it.
