THE FAWN RECOVERY GUIDE: How to Stop Bleeding for Everyone Else and Start Reclaiming Your Nervous System

You weren’t born agreeable. You were conditioned to disappear.

This is a multi-page recovery guide for people who:

• Apologize before they speak
• Say yes while their gut screams no
• Feel responsible for everyone’s comfort but their own
• Call it kindness, but feel resentment underneath it all

The Fawn Recovery Guide breaks that down — page by page — and gives you a way out that’s honest, grounded, and actually usable.

Inside this guide:

• Page 1: What fawning really is — not personality, but programming
• Page 2: Signs you’re in a fawn loop — and how to catch yourself in real time
• Page 3: Where it comes from — why it was never your fault
• Page 4: What to do with the guilt — because it always shows up
• Page 5: Scripts for when your mouth freezes
• Page 6: How to handle the spiral after setting a boundary
• Page 7: The reintroduction to your real self
• Page 8: A final reminder you’re not broken for finally saying no

This isn’t a journal prompt.
It’s a nervous system intervention.

You’re not selfish. You’re not too much.
You’re just healing — and no longer offering your peace to people who demand your compliance.
