I have ruined my life
I have allowed my insecurities to stop me from expressing myself. I was afraid of being rejected for being too sensitive or weak. This has back fired on me and my family thinks I am a horrible person that they don’t acknowledge. I don’t know what to do.
I also have been doing this to myself for some time now... The fact that im aware of it only makes it worst. I honestly am trying myself to figure out how to put myself out of my own insecurities so im not 100% on what i could say to help. But i can tell you some stuff ive tried to do to help. I am a girl.. So every morning i make sure i get out of bed and get dressed and do my make up.. I struggle more with self appearance then anything so doing this really does help. I also get talked to alot about my weight. So i have been doing excersise easy stuff but i also push myself. Hoping to see a difference. But always after i finish i feel more energetic. I then just find things to do to keep my mind busy so im not so focused on overthinking about what people think of me... Im really sensitive too... Like so much i cant stand it sometimes. And i have no idea how to change that. I just try and breath when i feel like crying mostly its a fail.. But rejection is also very hard for me to take... Maybe because i dont reject alot myself. Im always trying to do for others.. So it just upsets me to crazyness if i cant get help i asked for. I hope someone else can make a post that might better enlighten both of us
Its OK to have insecurities, everyone has them. But you can overcome them. Start slowly. For one, you are both here, talking about it. You have already started! Its a wonderful start. Taking care of your appearance by applying your make up and exercising is a fabulous start too. The fact that you are.doing it is.to me a great thing. I keep a journal when I'm not on here. I write out my feelings so that they aren't in my head anymore. I also use affirmations to lift my spirit and I pray. I'm not sure if either of you are believers or not. But sometimes having someone to believe in helps lift you up too. I'm not sure if this helps you two, but I hope I helped you a little
Thank you, you helped a lot. It's hard when you don't have anyone to support you.
We get insecure, it takes time to heal/recover/overcome them. Unfortunately family n friends n anyone can judge u, n they may or may not change their mind about u. Just keep moving forward. Maybe distance urself from them for awhile to help with healing n strengthening
