You can practice being assertive, so then you will always know that you made yourself clear. If people don't like your genuine self, they can fuck off - you don't have to be everybody's friend.

Being assertive means using "I" sentences to make what you want known to others.

For example, if you feel like someone is mistreating you, you can say "I feel bad when you say X to me. Can you please not say X?" If that doesn't work out, then the person really isn't worth your time.

Point is, you just have to be clear with what you want out of the conversation and it will turn out much better. Trust me, this is what I do to avoid thinking about shitty convos for days after they happened.

Its because you are week. you seek the acknowlagement of others to be sure of your own reality (meanwhile you cant even prove any of this is real. . . can you prove the real-ness of reality? no, no one can)

Stop worrieing about shit that doesnt matter, didnt matter, wont matter, and focus your will to something productive.

Generally the 'smarter' you are, the more you are suseptable to this kind of 2nd loop in your brain, but its pointless.

There is much more productive ways of using your synapses that doesnt involve ego-stroking self disection.

You might be intelegent, but what use is it if your only worried about acceptance in a world full of dulled out morons..


... i had this same issue

... I dont care anymore ...

"Fuck your world, your reality, ill take it as it comes and vaguely consider your interpretation, I cant even tell if you are real or just a figment of my fabricated conciousness. Ill take it all with some salt tossed over the shoulder."

I found that my anxiety was because, even though I didn't think it bad, I was constantly judging people.
Constantly figuring out what they thought, why they reacted in every way.
And at the same time, the big idea in my head was that they were all judging me. And they are, but it's not such a bad thing. We all judge each other in some way.

Unfortunately, knowing how people are feeling constantly (or at least thinking I knew) was the problem.

Pay attention to your senses. Hear deeply within your ears, see with your eyes, and breathe deeply.
Meditation every day until your mind is so clear that you can focus on that which you desire to.
Learning to sing can help you establish a focus on your core, if you want any tips on that PM me.

Hopefully some of this is helpful :D
I went through a very long and very painful time but can honestly say that my life is very fulfilling because of that time and the things I learned during.

I'm an expert on my own anxiety now and feel like I've almost mastered it. You and I may be vastly different, but I'm sure we share some similarities.
If I can't help you by relating to all of them, I'm sure I can help provide you some ways to think about your own unique problems.
Good luck my friend :)


i'm thinking i know how to help alleviate some of it
a lot of it is body insecurity, looks etc. which i'm already working on. down 7 lbs in 2 weeks or so.

but a lot of it is the fact i don't really have a lot of friends i can confide in that i feel won't judge me.
i used to be super close to everyone and whatnot, like i could say anything and not have a care in the world but it's a lot different now because coming across new people is harder.
having a friend i can say anything to (in person, not just online because it's way easier) and not have to say 'uhh' and tell them what i'm trying to say indirectly, would be nice.
there's a few people like that in my life now but some of them i don't feel i can trust with what i have to say, even if i know they won't judge me.

and by 'won't judge me' i don't mean that they'll nevermind everything i say, but that they won't look down on me because of something i said or do etc and help me learn from it instead.

who knows. i'll figure it out.

that's the thing
i feel like i'm smarter/better but at the same time i'm a useless piece of shit and i know it lmao
maybe i overthink everything and cause my own stress but i'm not sure about that

i'm definitely trying to be more in charge of myself instead of saying something and letting someone follow off of that then following their lead etc.

i did this earlier actually, just took charge and said what i wanted to and things worked out so i'm going to work on & practice that habit.
