The 6-month guy. Just so you know. My username is Antnorwe. I can't exactly remember what i said in the rating comment but I think I said something which is phrased as a question lol :)
"Thank you for the veritable essay lol. And although everything you say is registering with me as useful, I have trouble believing it. See, the problem is that people have flirted with me for their own devices, or for kicks, or whatever. But not for good reasons. And I have spent all my life dealing with verbal abuse from my school 'mates' and even my peers (in this case teachers). So when you say i'm not inferior to others, everything that has been done to me in my relatively short life works against this. I do appreciate all your kind words though, especially the adorable thing lol. I cant see it myself, but then sometimes whats staring back at us from the mirror is blind to us. Thank you again :)"
First of all, you're welcome for everything. It's my pleasure to be able to help someone on this site who can type correctly and seems to have a fully functioning brain. I'm very happy about that. Second of all, I always type an essay. I don't set out to do it, but it just happens. Just go with it, and you'll get used to it.
Third of all, if you deal with verbal abuse it's because the people in your life are jealous of you, seriously. Think of life as a race. If you were winning in a race, would you stop and take the time to turn around and insult the person behind you? No. The only time you would do that is if you were losing and you knew it.
The people around you are insecure and are afraid that you're going to pass them by (and you probably will). That's why they're doing their best to insult you, trip you up, and keep you behind. So for all those people who say negative stuff to you - tune 'em out. You don't need those kinds of attitudes in your life.
Finally, negativity is a very bad and addictive habit. Most people practice it all their life because they learn it from negative parents who learned it from their parents and so on. It's addicting and misery loves company. That saying is the truth. So any amount of positivity you tell yourself is going to fall on deaf ears right now.
You have to practice to make positivity effective. You have to live it, eat it, breathe it, and make love to it. Not only are you undoing a bad habit, but you're starting a new one. So it takes time. Even if you don't see it or feel it, give it time because positivity will make an outstanding and lasting impression on your life and your mood.
Human beings are not equipped mentally to know what's best for ourselves. Our parents are our teachers and most of the time they don't teach us positivity - they teach us negative things trying to prepare us for life. So you're gonna have to do a lot of work and go AGAINST your natural instinct to do what feels comfortable.
