Too many thoughts, too many obsessions. Not everyone is going to like you. You can't please everybody all of the time. You cannot control how others view you, only how you respond to them. I cannot control how others feel about me, only how I feel about it. Take deep breaths and approach life for what it is: a struggle. Accept and learn to brush things off, no hyperfocusing, only understanding. Understanding that How Others View Me does not define Who I Am; the only thing I truly have is My Actions. I am a beautiful person who wants nothing more than to love and be loved, and the only thing I can do is give my love freely. How I get it, in return, is not for me to decide. And if others decide not to return it .... well then. I suppose that is their loss.
