Go back to #1. Is your statement assertive? If so, proceed. If not, reconsider how to state your expectation. Decide when you want to share your boundary—now or the next time it’s violated. Again, do what makes you feel most comfortable. Tend to your discomfort after sharing your boundary. Immediately ground yourself by engaging in a self-care practice. For example, you could meditate, write in your journal, or go for a walk.
