The Linguistic Skeleton of Ithmus Crypticus

Here is basically a few of the things that i feel are wrong about myself:

Fear of rejection: always get this, regardless of who I’m with. It doesn’t matter whether its with a friend, close friend, or a girl that i like, i always have this fear of being rejected by them

Big confidence problem: every time i do something, i always lose faith in myself. Soccer, sketching, exams, writing, it doesn’t matter, i will always automatically begin doubting myself and my abilities, EVEN WHEN I KNOW I CAN!!!!!! I crumble under pressure or when my skills are being tested

Stress out easily: this may mix in also with with confidence, but i also tend to worry about things too. Big one is my future, and whether or not ill actually make something of myself in life. Or when something really bad happens, i tend to dwell and worry about it for ages

Have trouble feeling comfortable talking to people: always feel really intimidated when im talking to people, particularly when they’re someone i dont know. But even with people i do know, i find it hard to relax around them and just sit down and just socialize with people. I always feel like i have to be the village idiot or be constantly funny to keep them as my friend

Have a low self esteem: . . . . yeah, thats pretty self explanatory, haha.

Get angry or frustrated really easily: a lot of things really annoy me and piss me off. Even stupid little things like noises can really make me irritated. Or when someone starts to try and put me down, i dont walk away, i just become incredibly furious and can only think about how much i can try and hurt them. I hate this part of me.

Well . . . . there’s my linguistic skeleton of all that i think are my bad points. Ill probably think of more later . . . when its too late to add them, haha

If anyone has any ideas on how i can improve on these, im open to your suggestions, no matter how silly they are, hahaha.

Or if you just want to say, “MAN, your messed up!!!” . . . well, alright you can say that too

You’re not messed up at all! You recognise things in yourself that you would like to change. You realise you are not perfect. You have a sense of what is right/wrong. You realise what triggers negative emotions in you.

To me, that’s already streets ahead on the self-awareness scale. And when you have self-knowledge, you are only a few steps actually addressing the negatives and becoming who you would like to be.

:)

Now.. what are your other good points?
