For a decade now, when I don't want to go to something, I don't go. That single boundary, permission to decline invitations based on whether I actually want to attend, flipped my life. No more forcing myself to show up exhausted. No more pretending to be present while my mind's elsewhere. No more draining myself for other people's expectations. The people who matter understood. Life looks a lot better when you stop forcing yourself to attend things you don't want to attend.
