Not nearly as much as they used to, mainly because I work from home and don't socialize that much. The people I do socialize with are not big teasers. When I last worked in public, I suffered tremendously from teasing.

I knew I was still putting myself down, but I didn't think it was the same thing, just me thinking negative stuff and saying it though I shouldn't be. I tried to stop doing that too and thought I had.

Just recently though I discovered that I am bad-mouthing myself and downplaying my dreams and arguments in anticipation of others doing it and I hadn't been aware I was still doing that. It's very worrisome.
