We all have that one friend. The one we run to with a, "Can you help me with this?' or a, "Do you have a *insert obscure object here*?". I know, because I am that friend, guilty! While it sometimes can be frustrating, the pros definitely outweigh the cons.

1. You always have EVERYTHING in your bag

Chapstick, gum, lint roller, stain stick, you have it all.

2. You feel the need to be prepared for anything and everything

Which more often than not, turns into overpacking for every. single. trip.

3. Your whole hallway always comes knocking on your door, asking for random things

"Do you have a screwdriver?"

"Of course! who doesn't??"

*pulls out whole toolbox*

4. You have become a seamstress with all your friend's clothing you've fixed

Pants, check. Formal gowns, check. Beloved stuffed animals, check.

5. You always have mints or candy

*Discreetly passes them down the pew at church*

6. Your friends always come to you for advice

Even though you, yourself, have no idea what you're doing.

7. You're the one people come to for a hug and a shoulder to cry on

People say you just have a comforting personality.

8. You have a signature tea you make to cheer people up

It never fails, not sure why.

9. You are always the one that seems to organize plans

No plan = disaster.

10. You have mild OCD

A clean room is a happy room.

11. You always look after your friends' best interests

You feel bad if you let them do something they might regret.

12. You never fail to bring soup and movies when someone is sick

You've got it covered.

13. You're a master of dealing with injuries

Ice pack? Check.

14. "Can you put this in your purse?"

"What do I look like? Your mother?"

15. You have a coined, "mom name"

"Mama Becky" caught on real quick.

Being the "Mom friend" is something that will never change.

I'll never forget the day that someone told me these words: "Madison, I think you're a good friend to everyone but yourself." I stood there completely in awe of that statement. Before that day, I never really thought about being a friend to myself, and at the time, I didn't really know what it meant. Now, I realize that you can't fully be there for other people unless you're there for yourself, too. You can't show up for others until you're willing to show up for yourself.

Here are five things everyone should learn in order to be a better friend to themselves. These steps are hard, but they're so worth it.

Thanksgiving Break is most likely everyone’s favorite break during the fall semester. You get to go home and reminisce with all your high school friends. That diet you’ve been on for the past month goes out the window, and you get to eat until you put yourself into a food coma. There’s no rush on homework and you can just lie in bed and Netflix to your heart’s content. To me that sounds like an ideally wonderful break, and totally stress-free.
