Are you happy with who you currently are?

Not really but more than I used to be. I guess I changed a lot in the past three years or so.

 

I probably should start to take life more seriously and face the fact that next year will [probably] be my last year in university.

I still am happy with myself, more than I was a few years ago. Sure there are times and situations that make me angry with myself or desperate, but I try to learn from my mistakes and move on. It's not good to dwell on the past.

Yeah, its funny how you reach a point in life where you just want to be on your own...but at the same time don't.

 

This time i really would like to be on my own..just to get my thinking straight again and be able to concetrate on things i want and have to concentrate on.

At the moment, i believe Im doing very well besides the fact that I am alone. But I am happy with who i currently am.

Know how you feel man, really do. I'm in that sorta state.

 

no :(

 

I'm too depressed and too angry most of the time... also I always feel that I'm too lazy

 

Lore, you just summed up my 3 worst traits. Totally know how you feel hey, especially the lazy thing, its like, ugh, can't be bothered most of the time.

 

All these things I wanna do in life are like ladders, and I rarely start climbing any of them even though it'd be easy to.

It's a yes and no answer, really...

 

I'm vaguely happy with the way my life is progressing. And I'm vaguely happy with my personality. I think I'm a much better person for the most part than I was just a few months ago, 'cause I've learned a lot of things from situations that I've really hated to be a part of.

 

But as much as I've wished some things about the past few months hadn't happened, it has made me a better person. Possibly not in the short term 'cause with some people I know I'm a bit of a pain to be around because there's just things on my mind that I wanna complain about but in a few weeks or a few months when everything seems to be on the right track again I think I'll look back at some revelations in my eyes and know I'm better off for having them.

yes i'd say i'm happy with myself...a bit more stressed out cuz of the high school college transition soon...

i've always been happy with who i am. of course there are a few things i would change a bit if i could, but i think it's stupid to get hung up on that stuff, since it never really gets in my way in the first place. i also think people are pretty screwed if they don't like who they are, so i refuse to let myself fall into that trap.

 

however, i'm not happy with the stage in life i'm currently at. i'm in one of those "stuck" periods where i don't feel like anything is benefiting me and it's mostly just a waste of time because i'm not enjoying myself either. but i know that this stage will be over soon (and hopefully things will temporarily change next year), so i can deal with that. basically i just want to get on with things, but the trappings of society won't let me get on with it.

There are some aspects of me that I guess I do appreciate, but of course there are some things that I would like to change. I think I still have a lot of growing up to do, and will have to learn to do what I think is right for myself.

I'll never be happy with myself because I'll never be the best. I keep pushing myself towards perfection, and it's all the imperfections in everything I do that will always tell me I'm not good enough.

^Just always try to be the best you can be; don't compare yourself to anyone else.

There's really nothing good about being better than yourself. No reward in beating yourself at something. No happy feeling when I'm still less than what I want to be, which is better than everybody else...when I'm at the top, then I can compete with myself...

You do realise you're going to go through your entire life living in disappointment and it will probably break you and ruin your life?

Sure I am. If you are unhappy with who you are, then you need to change something. No one should just sit around and feel bad for themselves.

so change.

so change.

 

i am trying all the time. there are so many resisting factors in myself and in the environment around me. i would do this if i had a strong enough will or motivation.

For the most part, I really am.

 

I know it might sound emotionally-narcistic or whatever, but I'm feel happy and lucky to have been where I have been and gone through the experiences I have been through, however amazing or stupid. Sometimes I wonder if this mainly positive streak will end, but I'm just going to keep going the way I am and do the things that will hopefully be the best for me.

 

Now, I'm just looking forward to university and wondering if and how my outlook may change.

Maybe you could try getting away from the people around you and the place you live? It could be hard, but a fresh start is what a lot of people need.
