You need to act confident when you are having these feelings. Fake it until you make it basically. Don’t be a people pleaser either , I have that bad habit too. You need to do confident things, start out with something small like maybe post a cute picture on social media or approach someone new at work and say hi , maybe some harmless ( since you have a bf) flirting to just feel better about yourself and build ur confidence

Hey luna. I feel the same. I am so unconfident that even when people around me are saying that im good i start crying because i feel they are just making things upand im not good enough. If somebody raises their voice a lil bit i start feeling worthless. Even tho im on therapy and medication. I guess its natural. What we have to do is stand infront of mirror and give ourselves pep talks to boost our confidence and tell what we have achieved and write them down.

I don’t know how to stop confessing. It’s driving me insane. I confess every little thing to my boyfriend. I confessed that I liked attention (this is so obviously human), that I liked it when people found me pretty (also very human??) I confessed about a million other things and I feel out of control. I felt so safe with him last night that it just started pouring out of me. I felt guilty and awful and I just needed release, I couldn’t breathe I felt like I was dying. I’m stuck in a confessing loop and I know I’m only making things worse. Has anyone experienced this and been able to overcome it? It feels absolutely horrible and impossible. I tried to ERP this and I genuinely feel like I am suffocating if I hold off. I feel so disappointed in myself, but I can’t seem to stop. I even had a dream where I confessed to him and woke up needed to confess that. I’m scared I’ll start sharing my worst intrusive thoughts I’ve had if I feel too safe around my bf. Help please :(

I often feel like i did something wrong even tho i am positive i didn’t, my boyfriend and i have been together for like 6 months and i’ve been completely loyal to him the whole time but recently i’ve been feeling the need to confess that i cheated on him even tho i didn’t and there’s absolutely no proof that i did something even close, i don’t talk to other men and if i do my boyfriend has full access to my phone and it’s usually a friend or me asking a simple question but i still feel the need to confess even tho i’ve done nothing wrong🥲 someone please help it’s so confusing
