I have tried so hard not to. But I just always get caught up in it.
The way someone treats me or acts towards me, how he sees me
and reacts to me, I assume that is me.
This is why itīs extremely difficult for me to even interact at all with other people. At least with people that donīt really know me well. And I donīt have many that truely know me.
Itīs difficult to take a stand. I never know how to act.
I really donīt know what itīs like to be myself. Or if I do know, I cannot be her in social interactions, because sheīs so small and insecure, I just cannot present myself like that.
I wish I had a strong core on the inside that allowed me to change a little
to be fitting to the situation, but generally always know and feel who I am on the inside.

Alisha, have you told your therapist this? You are still seeing a therapist right?

yes of course. Iīm not sure Iīve told it exactly like that. I have mentioned though that I never quite feel authentic with other people. Except with my boyfriend.
Well there are so many things Iīd need to talk about, I guess, itīs just that an hour a week covers only a fraction of the things that are going on inside of me. And as I told before, my therapist talks too a lot. So... yea thereīs just too much stuff.
