Be Myself?


Question Posted Wednesday February 6 2008, 5:52 pm

Ok, here's the thing. At school I never be myself because honestly, I act really crazy at home and I'm afraid people are going to think I'm weird. What if they start judging me, or they don't like me? Should I just forget what they think and start being myself? And if I do, what if they start laughing at me?

If people start laughing at you while you be yourself, one of the best things to do is learn how to laugh at how ridiculous you are. Also, find ways to laugh at them back. If you like yourself the way you are and then OWN it, no one can touch you. Others who try can just be shut down. Don't let people think they have the privilege to judge.

You should definatly just be yourself and if people dont resepect you as a person well you know at least they arent the right friends for you, just be yourself never be fake because if people begin to like you, they dont actually like the real you and then you'll begin to wonder would people ever accept who you really are. Dont EVER care what other people think who are they? NOONE thats who! Go be yourself and if they laugh , they laugh ! You'll be the one laughing in the end! But i assure you , people will like you. And once you start being yourself, you'll find out so many new things, and will find other people you get on with really well

I think you should be yourself. I know it would take lots of guts to endure the laughter and staring but you have to deal with it. If you don't act yourself, people will judge you differently and expect something else from you. So be who you are and if you don't like the way you are make a few small tweaks. But if you love the way you are and people don't like you, it's their loss.


Hope I helped!

i feel the same way. except i feel like theres not really a way to forget what they think and start being yourself. just make sure you are being yourself around your friends. that is the most important thing. i feel like as soon as i get comfortable with someone i can be myself around them. good luck :) they wont laugh at you.

If you spend your whole life going based on what others might think of you, have you ever thought of what you might think of yourself. I say be yourself. And you know if they do start to judge you, just ignore them, or tell them off whichever you prefer.. ;) Its not like they dont act wild...
