If you live your life focused on doing what people want, saying what they want and just caring about what they want, you won’t be you anymore because you spent all of that time focused on what people thinks about you instead of focusing on yourself. Your mental health is important, yes your reputation is important and it shouldn’t be ignored but it shouldn’t come to the expense of your mental well-being and happiness. You can’t expect people to love you if you don’t love yourself. Learn to love yourself first then learn to love other people.
