Friendship- a pressure & stress to me..How to turn friends away?plz help?

sounds like you have a hard time saying NO. me and my dad have the same problem and it has caused so much stress on his part and $ loss. i belive it would be vary healthy for you to try and say no to people and take time for yourself. say you are to busy and do something for yourself. you dnt even hafe to lie. just say i dont want to or i have plans... than quick make plans :) i know what you are going through and i am trying to say NO more to protect myself. good luck :)
