What are some of your weaknesses?

Mine would have to be that I get hurt very easily.

I also react to things first without thinking, which gets me into trouble a lot. This is something that I really need to work on.

Also, I am always afraid to ask for help when I need it. I am great at supporting others, but when it comes to myself, I just am unable to ask for it.

Lack of motivation. Even when manic I can't focus my energy and I don't take care of things that really need to be taken care of.

I overthink everything, trying to read the hidden motives in other people's words and deeds. It's hard for me to take things at face value. When I'm really paranoid I believe my fears are facts, and act accordingly, as though everyone is my enemy.

I tend to put things off thinking they will get better on their own, everything will be better just around the corner........

All or nothing attitude, which comes hand in hand with perfectionism...
Over-thinking as I want to control things to feel safe...
Being self-destructive when I just need to cut myself some slack and take things easy. I don't seem to know how to take things easy, however much I like the idea of being able to do it...And the list could go on!

I become obsessed with following a new interest, I throw everything into it and everything else comes crashing down around me. I'm also leathal with credit cards, I buy when I'm depressed to try to make myself feel better and when I am hypo I just spend without a care in the world!

Like you SunAngel I tend to be too emo haha. But I am working on it . It's hard to keep any sort of rationality around when I function off emotions alone, which are not always correct. Sometimes maybe it's a weakness to think that everyone is good, but then again maybe everyone has some good in them. I find it hard to be angry with the person that steals my bike, I mean maybe they really needed it.

Like many of you guys on here I get hurt very easily

I also find asking for help very difficult to do and will wait until I am really ill before I seek medical help, support from my network etc

I get upset very easily

I don't like listening to reason when its to do with being ill and will rebel against reason

I hurt myself

I hurt others

Think that's all

I struggle to take showers, and keep my mobile home clean. I just moved to Santa Cruz to a new Mobile Home and I already have it cluttered. It defies logic. I spent 2 month's throwing out or selling over half of what I had before moving, go figure.

I'm forgetful and really ADD. I feel too much and try to contain those feelings (unhealthy? yes.) I beat myself up over small things. I think wayyyyyy too much. I try to control things that cannot be controlled. I try too hard to be liked by everyone because I care too much what everyone thinks of me. Hmmmm, I'm sure there are plenty of other things too, but I'm forgetful so I can't remember them at the moment

I think I can be too sensitive at times.

p r o c r a s t i n a t i o n

I haven't posted in ages but here's a few of mine:

Overly-sensitive
take myself too seriously at times- that ties in with the above
and I eat too much usually because of anxiety

Its difficult for me to structure my free time. Its hard for me to set and reach goals. I let my fears control my life.

Laa-zzzy, laaa-zzzy, I takes my time, I do.
I can't huuur-ry. Not for me or you.

I NEVER forgive.

I struggle with the shower thing also. Way too shy, not good at making friends, have trust issues. Lack of motivation, & other stuff...

Internet addiction. Difficulties forming close relationships. Difficulties seeing myself as being fully human. Procrastination. :P Need to mean something to someone. Self-abusive. Selfish.

Perfectionistic. Being overly analytical. Refusing to accept help. Forgetful. Impulsive. Letting go too easily.

I'm an alcoholic. I drink on my meds, which despite clean liver tests, is probably doing damage. It also doubles the lack of impulse control which comes along with BP. this has led to some very poor life decisions.

- Hurt by sharp words, as I always want to do the right thing, and will beat myself up relentlessly for failing and not being able to let it roll off.
- Won't stand up for myself for fear of confrontation.
- Unable to feel a sense of belonging in this world.
- Incapable of asking for help.

Many more I'm sure...

My main weakness is fear of failing, so i never even try, right now i feel i am capable of so much more than where i am, but i'm too depressed to do anything.

Another weakness is that i cant admit to my weaknesses when asked, i may hate myself alot but i cant admit weaknesses.

Oh and i'm too quiet. i hate that

I can fully sympathise Innerzone...

I am a perfectionist and sometimes controlling.

I may one day break the world while try to fix it... even on smaller scale... I sometimes get too overenthusiastic.

at times I tend to believe everybody is as intelligent as me and when i realize they are not, I get annoyed beyond belief and start hating humans and wishing an armageddon on us.

I tend to not take care of myself very well at all I don't eat yet I feed my animals.I am not able to ask for help when I'm in a really really bad state of unwellness and I'll go days without bathing cause I just don't care.Very embarrassing indeed.
