Am I being true to myself?

Lately I feel I am taking myself for granted, my emotions, my feelings, my thoughts, I am suppressing them or rather hiding them so that others don't feel bad or get hurt, but what about me? What about my feeling? Does anybody care if I get hurt?

No. I feel people are taking me for granted and I feel I know why because I am taking myself for granted, being the emotional anchor for others has drained me so much that I need a emotional anchor for myself, but people don't get that. I have become so entangled in others problems that I feel I think more about them than myself, I spend more time pulling them out of trouble than with myself.

I have to start devoting time for myself, for my projects, for my entertainment. If people want to fight let them fight, if they want to do skip internals let them do it. I have to learn to let go and stand for myself, if people are doing something which makes me feel uncomfortable I have to learn to refuse. How can I be true to myself when I am being a pushover, a doormat.... someone not me.

I found it very entertaining .the thing which i loved about the movie was the perfect balance between fiction & reality. also the story line was very refreshing and innovative.

Nothing kills you like your mind

Okay so this another life changing moment for me, I just realize that more than half of the time I'm don't do things because of fear of failing, I have a very vivid imagination I can imagine the worse case scenario in very situation even when something good may have a chance of happening I just mess it up by thinking and overthinking it. Like right now I have this MUN coming up and trust me I have wanted to MUN for a very long time but now I'm really scared and because of that I'm making all these worst case scenarios in my mind about how I would suck. The problem with me is that I care, not too much, but still I do care enough to hesitate, and this is where I lose out on opportunities, but now I have decided I'm going to give up on this hesitation and not let my mind kill me slowly. I'm going to do what I like, how I like and when I like. I'm going to ask questions in class, participate in discussions and debates, volunteer alone if I have to, but I wo...

First fight with room mate

So it is generally accepted fact that it takes a lot to set me off, I mean people give examples of my patience, seriously they do, it is no exaggeration. But now enough is enough, so I had a fight with my room mate, well to be exact it was not really a fight, I shouted and she just walked out not that much exchange of words and stuff, but one gets the point it was a disagreement. So now there this kind of cold war kind of thing going on between us, where we are giving each other a cold shoulder, now I do know that I may have overreacted a bit but my initial reaction was completely justified. What is done is done, now it is time to move on, but the point of ego comes into play who is going to make the first contact, who is going to be the first one to bow down and talk? And frankly I don't mind being the first one at all.
