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.

Does anyone else experience this lingering fear and anxiety because they think they’re capable of hurting someone? It’s killing me. I feel like I’m such a danger. I feel like I’m a predator. I feel like this awful person and I can’t shake it. I want to carry on with my day but I can’t. I don’t feel like I deserve it. I feel like I’ve done awful things. I can’t stop crying.

I am a 21(female). I have only ever kissed one guy and it was horrible and I cried after. I stress about my sexuality constantly. I only want to be straight and know I want to end up with a man, but picturing it stressed me out and I am so scared to kiss a guy I think about it and get so stressed and cry immediately. I have severe intrusive thoughts about kissing everyone my teachers my best friends and it creeps me out and then I go down a rabbit hole of sexual orientation ocd! If anyone has any tips that might help that would be great. Again I don’t want or think I am gay but being so scared to be intimate with a man starts me down a spiral.

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
