Why Do I Feel Guilty Every Time I Set a Boundary?

Why Do I Feel Guilty Every Time I Set a Boundary?

In this episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon talks about why setting a boundary can feel so guilty, even when it is necessary and healthy. He explores how survivors get conditioned to feel bad for having needs, disappointing others, changing old patterns, or protecting their peace. He also breaks down the difference between guilt and responsibility, why so many people over-explain their boundaries, and how another person’s reaction can pull survivors back into self-doubt. This episode is about the emotional aftermath of saying no, and why guilt does not always mean you did something wrong.
