    I have more issues than Playboy Magazine...

    I'm Bipolar so that brings in mood fluctuations that can either be related to nothing or something insignificant like maybe I can't find a certain pencil. I can go from crying to p*ssed in 10 seconds flat and I've been known to minorly assault and/or harass strangers for things like looking at my chest, talking to me a certain way, or playing music too loud.

    Agoraphobic along with Anxiety so I will literally freeze in crowds of people and have to be physically removed. God help you if I actually start screaming. I got caught in a bad crowd during Christmas season one year and simply sat on the ground and screamed until someone found me. I'll also puke.

    I don't handle pressure well so if there's a deadline I will panic, I pressure myself if there's not a deadline simply because, I'm very impulsive though usually only about shopping or activities for the day, I rant at the drop of a hat simply because I'm a fairly angry person, I lost all my friends because I couldn't put up with them or they couldn't put up with me (the former usually because I was being used, whether for the attention I gave or like one friend, a person she could hang on her arm to make her look better) and I tend to be very cynical and sarcastic and it's led to a LOT of fights online because the people are either sensitive or don't pick up on it.

    Oh and I'm scared of men. Except my boyfriend, which is weird.

    I get angry very quickly. Have no tolerance for stupidity, ignorance or people who take too long to do things. When angry I tend to say the first thing that comes to mind, which usually can't be taken back.

    I do all that and then am too sensitive when it comes to my feelings. Yep, I realize how ironic that is and if it were easy to change, I would have done it already.

    I get along with people whom are complete opposites of who I am. Those who are blunt, outgoing, loud, rude etc. Where as I'm shy, sensitive, loving, responsible etc.

    I swing between delusions of grandeur and insecurity, but on the bright side, I'm good if I'm in the middle.

    Love this. Well said.

    I'm way too nice.

    I also believe the best in people even after they prove me wrong.

    I trust too easily.

    The worst issue I have....is I expect the people in my life to treat me like I treat them! *gasp*

    This is because you have a big beautiful :heart: !!

    I'm insanly shy to the point I have to know someone years to be able to have a conversation with them, Im also far to nice and the people I know best take advantage of that. Im sure theres more but those are the ones I want to change most of all!

    My issues? I have several.
    The main one I am currently battling right now is "Midlife crisis" and loneliness. I spent my first part going 100% with work and education. Relationships did come but they usually didn't last. 35 now and the dating world is harsh.

    I have an "all or nothing" personality. It's been great for the weight loss so far, but my house is either immaculate or a disaster area. Same as with friends, i love them til they cross the "line" and then i drop them and never bother with them again. Luckily though, i am very understanding so the "line" is hard to cross.

    Hi, I think my biggest issue is that I depend on other people to bbost my own self confidence. It's an issue I'm trying to work on though, I need to do things for me without having to ask for validation. It's like I'm scared or something, idk of what though... :huh:

    I try to be a 'fixer'... people tell me their problems and instead of allowing them to 'vent', I try to come up with solutions. It has actually LOST me some friends in the past.:frown: Something that I am trying to work on daily. :flowerforyou:

    I'm an emotional sponge, and very receptive to the emotions in a room. If the people around me are happy, I am, and if they aren't, I'm not. I feel like a shadow of a person sometimes, apathetic on my own.

    I tend to over analyze the words and actions of those I love. If I feel like there might be any doubt of their affection for me or how they think of me I freak out, blame myself for everything and make the entire situation worse.

    I used to be like this, and now I'm just pissed at the person that destroyed it. As I get older, I see more and more that destroys my faith in the humanity of people around me. When did nice become so rare? When did honesty bow down before selfishness?
    Do everything you can to hold onto your niceness, and keep forgiving as long as you can. It might get you hurt, but hurt is better than the bitterness that follows when you discover that you just can't see the best anymore.

    I have Social Anxiety Disorder. It's torture because I'm an extrovert, but I'm TERRIFIED of people, LOL. It doesn't matter whether it's a grocery store clerk being friendly, trying to make friends at my new church, hanging out with people I've known for ten years, or calling my mother on her birthday, social situations seriously panic me. Luckily, I have a very outgoing husband, and all of his friends have become my friends, and they are all awesome people.

    I have a secret fear that when my kids are grown, I will lose touch with them because I will be afraid to call them and they will get too busy to call me. :(

    I have been slowly getting better over the last two years, but it's something that I've had all my life, and won't ever completely go away.

    Oh.....where to start.

    Due to being told all my life that I was fat and that, unless I lost weight, boys wouldn't want to date me I have a hard time seeing myself as I truly am......I think I'm way bigger and unloveable....luckily I have an awesome and patient hubby. (I weight 117 lbs at about 5'3" when I graduated high school).

    I don't like being out of control and definitely need to have the control.....I'm getting better at this and it's why I'm in control of the finances....relieves the stress and I'm better at it!!!

    I have a hard time making friends and don't really believe people when they say they like hanging out with me. I feel like people just put up with me and don't really want to be my friend.

    I worry A LOT!!!! About everything!!!!

    I have a hard time saying no....which can be bad because I will help others and burn myself out.

    I've got lots of National Graphic issues....

    In reality, I have a hard time asking people to help me do things we've agreed to share. For example, I just try to make it visible I'm working on a shared duty hoping they'll get the hint. Then I get aggravated when they don't help.

    I get angry easily, act on that anger without thinking it through...and messy chaos ensues.

    I'm pretty good at holding onto things I should let go of too.

    Both of these make me look more of an idiot than tough, I think...Which is what I deserve when I've been unfair.

    I am sensitive too, always have been. I am an empath which is a double-edged sword...having extreme empathy enables me to work well when helping others, but it's a cross to bear of sorts too, as I've had to toughen up in order to function in this world.

    I'm way too trusting/gullible. I always see the good in people, until it's too late.

    I procrastinate, have a rather irreverent sense of humor, and tend to be too literal.

    I also become very internal for long periods of time, pretty much ignoring my loved ones. Luckily, they keep me around for entertainment value. :tongue:
