Narcissistic and inferior, sensitive and indifferent. I'm very conflicted, feeling like I'm superfluous?




Very narcissistic, always looking at their own reflection in shiny surfaces...They exercise obsessively and avoid certain foods to maintain their figure. If they eat a little too much, they won't feel better until they've starved themselves into pain. Yet at the same time, they have a super inferiority complex...When someone talks to them about a subject they're unfamiliar with but think they need to know about, they'll feel ashamed and irritated, and want to slash themselves with a knife. Then they'll go crazy, forcing themselves to read up on the subject, but they'll never be as good as the others...It's really frustrating...When they interact with other people, they often feel superfluous, and dare not engage in any intellectual debate, except to occasionally contribute a joke.

I can relate to feeling insecure sometimes, it's tough when you feel like you're not measuring up.
Everyone has their own insecurities; the key is learning how to manage them without being too harsh on yourself.
It sounds exhausting to constantly strive for perfection and never feel satisfied with who you are.
Sometimes we put so much pressure on ourselves to be knowledgeable that it can really take a toll on our selfesteem.
Feeling out of place in conversations can make one retreat, but humor can be a great way to connect with others.
