monkee,
Welcome
I too have always been a people pleaser but not anymore. I have finally put my foot down to not tolerating or agreeing to do things I don't want to do.
These people have drifted away but I don't care. I suppose they weren't true friends to begin with. I no longer tolerate my family treating me bad. I just refuse to talk with them for awhile till things calm down or, I only call once in awhile. I need to get well not allowing them to bring me down. You must do the same.
