"Something that fucked with my sense of self advocacy/establishing boundaries was when I tried to do that with a friend, it blew up in my face. That friend did exactly what I feared would happen. They got mad at me, flipped things around where I had to apologize and really I'm the bad guy, and when I didn't want to talk about it anymore because the confrontation turned into a thing where I'm the one who can do no right and I should feel bad"

I had this exact same thing happen to me. My former best friend just needed/wanted A LOT of together time, like talking on the phone daily and hanging out in person multiple times per week. This is TOO MUCH for me. But it would hurt her feelings when I said no. I remember one time in particular, a new game I really wanted to play was coming out, and I was honest and told her that I didn't want to hang out that weekend because of this game. And she got so mad about it, and told her room mate and they both made fun of me. That taught me that it's better to lie and make up excuses vs being honest with her, because she didn't respect my boundaries, or me as a person in general. That incident was really representative of our friendship as a whole. She is no longer in my life at all, and I am so much happier now.
