"The user's core problem stems from a fear of disappointing others and a strong desire for their approval, leading them to overcommit. This fear is deeply rooted in their self-worth being tied to being helpful and liked. Solution [2645] directly addresses this by focusing on building internal validation and recognizing self-worth independent of external opinions. This is crucial for the user to feel empowered to say 'no' without feeling like they are devaluing themselves or risking rejection.
