How do I allow other people to cross my boundaries?

I'm not sure if this quote means willingly or unwillingly, so I'm going to do both.

How I willingly let people cross my boundaries. They have to be people I know really well, or a kid that doesn't know any better.

Usually it's my parents, I either cross my boundaries for them, or they cross them. When they do cross my boundaries, I don't usually tell them because they're stressed enough as it is, but if they ask I will answer truthfully.

Sometimes when they cross my boundaries, it's for reasonable stuff, so I try not to get to overwhelmed or upset. When I cross my boundaries for them, it usually has something to do with loud noise or my grandparents, sometimes both.

When I unwillingly let people cross my boundaries, I mean that as a they hurt me really badly situation. I try really hard to not get my boundaries crossed, and when it's for people I don't like or things I don't think are reasonable, those can cause panic attacks.

Now, unfortunately I'm a really nice person deep down, border-lining stupid, where even if I have trouble thinking straight, I try and comfort anyone who is with me, aka my parents.

So if I'm in the middle of a big crowd, and I get a panic attack, I'm not focusing on focusing, I'm also slightly worried about how my parents feel, and with panic being the main thing I feel...

Yeah, I know, it's stupid.

How do y'all allow other people to cross your boundaries? If it's to personal, don't tell me, I don't need to know.
