You begin by strengthening your true self. Poor boundaries are the result of a traumatized childhood, where the traumatized child who does not understand boundaries is running your life. You need to resolve the trauma through therapy, and release the negative energy locked up in the inner child. This will result in a more healthier you, who feels averse to having your boundaries violated and to violating others’ boundaries.
There is no simple solution to this. It is tied up with your overall psychological health. You need to fix that to fix the attendant problems.
This is a hard question because boundaries are so subjective within each and every one of us. If we feel our boundaries are not strong enough this is the limit to address. So how do we decide where to put the brakes on. This best way that I have found is to journal from your gut, what is it that is pushing your buttons? Take it one step at a time, don’t expect miracles and you also do not want to make mistakes when you are trying to change the one that you relate to people. There is no reason to burn bridges while you are doing this. Try a thing or two and let yourself feel the changes. Until you feel that they are right before you go forward.
