Pack Your Bags and Get the Hell Out

Pack Your Bags and Get the Hell Out

My 2026 New Year’s Resolution


This is the year I stop sacrificing myself for people who wouldn’t do the same for me.

I am done letting family, coworkers, and so-called friends live rent-free in my head while draining my energy, my peace, and my time. That era is over. 2026 is not the year of excuses, guilt, or emotional freeloaders.

I’m done trying to fix lives that aren’t mine—especially while my own life is cracking under the weight of everyone else’s problems. I’m done putting out fires I didn’t start. I’m done caring more about your chaos than my own survival.

Let this be clear:
You cannot save everyone.
Some people don’t want help.
And carrying other people’s baggage will break your back if you let it.

I am no longer your therapist, your rescuer, or your emotional storage unit. You have two hands—carry your own damn luggage.

So to anyone feeding off my energy, peace, or compassion without giving anything back:

Pack your bags and get the hell out of my head, my heart, and my life.

This year, I choose myself.
I choose boundaries over guilt.
Peace over people-pleasing.
And self-respect over silence.

No explanations.
No apologies.
No looking back.
