Who am I?

[TheDevilsAngel]

Does anyone here feel like they dont know who they are anymore?

I wonder who i am and who do i want to be
I change so much and find it hard to know who the real me is......

 

[tomz323]

I've never known who I am, I can relate.

 

[Halo13]

I am afraid of what I have become.

 

[Anchors]

I don't know if I'm a good or a bad person. And since I kind of stopped talking to friends I've forgotten what my personality is like. It's hard to imagine a decent future for myself.

Every morning when i wake i wonder who i will be today....

I also get afraid because sometimes i can change to someone who is very scary and i cant control any of these changes....its hard to describe....

There are too many sides to me......

Yes, I've always had the problem of not knowing who I am. I've always tried to change myself depending on who I'm around because I was always too insecure to be myself in fear that no one would like the true me. Since I've been doing this my whole life I never got the chance to develop my individuality/personality so now I feel like a blank slate that just takes on whatever is going on around me. These days I'm just my depression and health problems. They have taken over who I am.

I'm a pathetic sack od meat that for some reason is sentient enough to know it will be useless always and will be alone till the end because I repel everyone.

 

[MeltedJello]

I ask myself the same thing every day. I've been so lost in this world with no goals, or dreams since the start. I'm tired of living, and I'm tired of trying. I'm just a guy who wants to ctb now.

When I was a drug abuser I was totally sure I knew who I was. Now I don't. I feel like I'm 13 again. A little boy trapped in 36 old body and face. I hate it here. I hate existing. I really do. How the fuck do people cope with life? I don't get it. I've been depressed since early teens. Maybe even since childhood. I hate it. I hate existing. I hate that I was born. I wish I was never born in the first place.

Damn you parents. Deep down I love you, but I wish you didn't had sex and giving life to me.

No one knows anyway. A healthy, stable sense of self is a product of good quality parenting in childhood, but is still completely fictional. You're the same thing as when you were first born and had no idea about gender/politics/religion/meaning/identity. You could have just as easily been born into a completely different part of the world and led a totally different life. It is all superimposed.

Eastern philosophy approaches this question very differently, bypassing the conditioned mind altogether through deep introspection. With the right effort and guidance, some have achieved a genuine answer, though it cannot be verbalised and others have to go through the same process to find out for themselves.

 

[FuneralCry]

We are all nothing, eventually we will all die and be forgotten. Our lives are meaningless. The thought that we are anything is just a delusion.

Just wanna laught at myself - have osdd, so can give you a more worse position. Knowing who you are, while everyone and everything around tells you, you are not who you are, and that is technically the truth from their perspective :)
