> I suffer from self-consciousness much less than I used to

Same, it used to be so bad I couldn't even listen to people 👀

I think I'm also just worried about what kind of person I'll become if I stop worrying, haha. It's like a big, scary unknown to me.

> no apology needed, no offense taken. thanks for seeing me

This is some of what I hear:
you worry, you worry, you worry.

Stop.

a quote from my current read:
> I feel myself. But it's only the eye with a lash in it, the swollen finger, the infected tooth that feels itself, is conscious of its own individual being. The healthy eye or finger or tooth doesn't seem to exist. So it's clear, isn't it? Self-consciousness is just a disease.

I suffer from self-consciousness much less than I used to. I also stopped measuring my potential so much as it made me miserable.
no apology needed, no offense taken. thanks for seeing me
