What's one thing most people don't know about you? I pick at my skin 20-60 minutes a day but I am working to stop it!!

I often hide people my true thoughts and feelings. It's hard to be vulnerable around others, even if they're close to me
@ambitiousCity3124 im the opposite and i hate it. Wish i was more like you. Wearing my heart on my sleeve gets exhausting and painful. A rollercoaster of feeling exposed and vulnerable, to feeling rejected and humiliated. Im sure there must be a healthy balance.
@Dinkwife31 I'm so sorry to hear that being open to people about your thoughts and feelings has made you feel bad
Well, being distant as I am is not really better, to be honest. Keeping emotions and thoughts to oneself can make that person lonely. I guess there must be a balance between these two ways of expressing oneself. There's this theory about attachment styles and according to the theory, the people who possess secure attachment style know how to strike the balance between being open and being distant. Maybe it's never too late for us to learn how to be more emotionally secure and to live a more fulfilling life
That I feel depressed, anxious and stressed a lot.
I get anxiety a lot, have depression, and also have Asperger
A lot of people don't know that I'm in almost constant physical pain. It makes it really hard to get up in the morning, but I hide it well enough that people think I'm fine.
@butwhytho17 did you get injured when you were younger? What happened?
@Miyako6 I had Lyme Disease twice, and now I have reactive arthritis. Anytime I get overly stressed, don't sleep enough, get sick, or even if my body just happens to be weird that day, my joints flare up and hurt terribly. It's not super fun. :)
I'm never really honest about how bad I'm feeling. I'll say I'm not feeling okay, but I won't be honest about how extreme those feelings can be. Even when people offer for me to open up to them and seem like they really mean it, I have a hard time doing that
I've not really posted anything lighthearted yet, so here goes:
I kind of want to learn how to dance. Just always have, never said it out loud. XD
@PluckyLuck248 You should go for it! I'm sure there are some dance schools near you. I live in a really small town and we have a ballet teacher and a hip hop dance school.
People think I'm a very good, intelligent, patient, reserved, obedient, serious... you name it for an ideal type of an honor student. In all honesty, I don't really have that image of an honor student. I, too, like to act crazy, like to sing popular songs, or play some dating simulation game for fun. I, too, can get angry and sad. I don't always understand things I learned right from the first time. Just like most people, I have to study all night if I want to get good results in class.
I have been through sexual trauma for more than 10 years from 1st grade up to college age. I have had assault, abuse and neglect done to me that my parents were unaware was happening. I have been able to learn great coping mechanisms. My wife and parents have no clue that I have went through this because I have been successful in coping with the trauma. I also suffer from headaches, lymes disease, limpoma in my brain and many other things of which they do know but don't understand.
They don't know that I psychologically analyze their personality to understand them more.
@8Moonlight
