How people see you and how you see yourself.

What vibe have you been told you give off by people? What's the first impression people get from you?

And what vibe do you think you give off?

What people say:

Angry, stiff, tense, depressed, asocial, non-chalant, unemotional, mysterious and intimedating

What I think:

Stiff, tense, social retard, depressed, angry, asocial

I have a different persona in the non cyber world to the one I project on here. As a mod, dealing with people's issues, I'm much more serious on here.

In the "real" world people say: "Humorous, dipsy, scatter brained, confident"


I say "Disorganised, procrastinating, shy, people pleaser"

I have HPD and so project myself in a totally different way to the way I feel inside. I do like to make people smile though, and see the funny side of things.

I've been told that when people first meet me, they tend to see me as sort of bubbly, happy, cute.

I always think I come across as sullen, shy, awkward, unhappy, angry. unless I'm intoxicated. maybe I just meet too many people when I'm drunk/high so that's how they think I am. haha

People say I'm fun, outgoing, funny, happy, sometimes to negative, insecure, lack confidence.

I think I'm boring, miserable, easily intimidated,socially awkward (with certain people) insecure

I'm also different when I'm drunk rainbow_sprinkles I'm way mote fun lol.

My mom calls me self-absorbed.

I've been called creepy.

I see myself as just quiet and shy, a little weird, kind of depressed/depressing, with a quiet voice.

Recently I was told, upon introducing myself, "oh, you're the one who doesn't talk". -_- Most people simply label me as quiet... to me that just seems to rob the word of all its meaning, or something... Someone on here said I sounded "real" (genuine), and I was surprised when recently I was also called as such by someone I met a few nights ago. Might not sound that important, but to me, it's such a compliment.

In my head: I'm unbelievably awkward, ungrateful, pathetic, unexpressive, avoidant, alone, boring, insecure, tense, paranoid... add your own here.

Well when I'm hypomanic or manic I've been told I'm a "social butterfly", "bubbly and fun", "totally innappropriate" (that one comes up every day!) "loud" and an "extrovert". But the real me is shy, reserved, quiet, serious. When I'm depressed I don't talk.

I think:

absent.

Wow, I have no clue of what vibe I give off. I think I would have to have a conversation with others first to extract that bit of information. (I'm not social).

The way that I see myself is happy, but distant, aloof, uninterested, but happy.


Yeah. Kinda weird.
