Your Slave is not your Therapist: Left-side Self-care

As Masters, Dominants, or any kind of D-type, we pride ourselves on taking care of the needs of our s-types. That focus can sometimes eclipse our own need for self-care, creating an unhealthy and nonconsensual codependency, effectively hobbling a Dominant’s coping skills. How can D-types “keep their emotional houses in order,” and best receive their partners’ service by practicing self-care? While focused on D-types, all are welcome to attend, participate, and share.
