So what’s the problem? The problem is that a certain personality type or trait causes stress, anxiety, and triggers. Especially if a person experienced trauma through a relationship with another, it’s easy to feel anxious, drained, or stressed out around personalities like those that caused the past trauma. What kind of boundary could someone set with this? Avoid situations like this or spend only a very limited amount of time in it.Īnother example… some people get triggered by certain personality traits. So what’s the problem in this example? The problem is the overwhelming sensory experience. After being in sensory overload situations like this, the person might feel exhausted, get headaches, and drained. Furthermore, the more you know about yourself, it makes your “why” behind the boundary that much more valid.įor example, some people have sensitivity to loud noises, strong smells, and/or bright lights (hello highly sensitive people like me!). You don’t have to know everything to set a boundary, but the more you can pinpoint what bothers you, and how it affects you, the easier it is to create. The first step to finding boundaries is to identify the problem.Īsk yourself questions like, “What’s stressing me out?” “Why do I feel this way? Is it because of certain people, situations, etc?”
