This thread and my session with T today just has me thinking so much about shame and self-worth. I'm reliving so many of the painful moments in my life when I felt shameful and invisible. Worthless.

I can't accept that people won't like me. I'll change myself to make them like me. Or I'll stop liking them first.

At the same time, a huge part of me doesn't believe anyone actually likes me.

It's confusing and exhausting.
