Put yourself first. I don't mean be selfish. I mean, realize that your needs are important. Don't let people walk over you. Don't feel obligated to do something for someone else if it means jeopardizing your mental health or stability. Speak up for yourself, even if you know it will make someone else feel awkward.
It's easier said than done, but still important.
