Constantly feeling like you have to earn everyones respect
This is why I'm such a mess and started to isolate myself so much.
I felt like I could never just be myself because myself was constantly being ridiculed. I felt like I had to constantly try and earn peoples respect which is a full time job and never ending. I just want to be myself because it's too drainning and I can't live like that anymore. Why could'nt people just feck off and leave me alone? I dont have the energy to keep fighting anymore. I can't present myself as someone deserving of respect anymore. |

I knew I needed to change years ago and did make ago of it but it was such hard work I had a nervous breakdown which was hell. Part of the reason I'm so scarred of trying to change again and get out of my comfort zone is because it's such hard work and I fear haveing another breakdown. I can't go through the extreme paranoia and episodes of pyshcosis again. Oh and, finger biscuits > kitkats. |

Sorry to hear you're feeling like that Frustration though unfortunately I can relate. I really know I just need to feel better and more sure in myself and then it wont matter. When you are low it just feels more impossible.

Maybe we need acceptance from others because we do not accept ourselves? --> lack of self esteem?
Yeah, I know. Same old same old :rolleyes: ...but it's true! |

Re: Constantly feeling like you have to earn everyones respect
I used to worry so much about what people thought of me that it was exhausting. I felt that I couldn't act naturally and be myself because I was always trying to fit in with everyone.
I've started to realise that the only way that I can get other people's respect is to have some self respect. It's not been easy, but i'm getting there eventually and it's making me much happier. (And less tired!) Good luck, I hope that things things get better soon for you |
