Is this the real Me?
I don’t know who I really am. I am rarely the same. I am different depending on who I am talking to. I wonder sometimes if I really am a good person. Do I really care about anyone? Do I love them or consider them a friend? Sometimes I am shy and other times I am outgoing. Mostly though, I am very depressed. I can fake being happy. How do I know which parts of me are real?
These are all very good questions. I think that simply by asking them, it shows you really do have awareness and you have the ability to feel regret, sorrow, empathy, kindness and all of those things :) At the very least, you show the desire to learn, to be cooperative with others, and to learn more about yourself and others. That's amazing.
At a young age I would feel how people around me were feeling . I could see their mood change or if they were lying. I thought everyone had that ability as well as the ability to modify who they were . I don’t take my anger out on others. I take it out on myself. I got burnt by therapist after therapist. I’m finished looking for help. Wish u all the best tho
That was so nice to read all the positive remarks. I am used to so much negatives!! Thank you
I feel the same way so many times, so just know you’re not alone. Are there any core elements that always remain the same? For example, no matter how much I question who I really am, music is always at the center of my life.
Yes my morals are always the same. And all the different versions of me like music. I hate that knot I feel when I know a mood change happened and I’ll take it personal .
Hi there, I feel like maybe its possible to be all of those things at once. I have recently been diagnosed with bpd and I have exactly those same feelings. Am I really able to care about anybody at all? Am I even a good person? Who am I when each time Im behaving differently and having different thoughts? I feel like being so full of contrasts is a part of bpd and its possible to learn how to live with it and with time even make an advantage of it. Who else knows how and introvert feels while knowing the extrovert’s side as well? We have so much insight thanks to it, we just need to work through it. But it definitely feels frightening and exhausting. If you had taste, feel free to send me a message. It might feel nice to have somebody who is going through the same and can relate 🙃
Hi... I just read your message. Time can go by and I somehow miss it.....it is nice to have commonalities!!:))
