Boundaries With Your Friends Can Sound Like:

"I need some time to process my emotions on my own."

"I don't feel comfortable talking about this right now."

"I need to figure this out on my own."

"I don't have the energy to hang out today."

"I am busy at that time."

"I wish I could be there for you but right now I do not have the mental capacity to do so."

"I do not want to have this conversation."

"I respect your opinions but I do not share the same opinion."

It's okay to have boundaries, even with people you love. It will help maintain your own wellbeing and help maintain your friendships.
