Same thing the flight attendant says in the instruction speech at the front of the cabin that everyone on the plane ignores.

Prioritizing yourself isn’t selfish—it’s necessary. When you take care of your own well-being, you’re in a stronger, better place to show up for the people who need you.

Sure, secure your own mask first

I use the analogy of the airliner air bag. If you don’t put yours on first, you can’t help anyone else.

You can't be anyone for anybody else if you can't be someone for yourself. You can try, but you'll eventually fail.

This is exactly what I tell others and don't listen to myself

Sometimes easier said than done unfortunately. 2025, must try harder.

Start a local group of like minded people.
Help each other & others.

Gardeners, mechanics, sewing, many have skills. You can even barter then prepare to resist
