What do you consider your fatal flaw?

Dopameme · November 10, 2015, 08:25:14 PM

sometimes in social situations i fall victim to "saying the wrong things" and ultimately fucking up potential friendships/relationships with people

i can be a little too easygoing, which is taken advantage of by certain people

A year or two ago I'd have said depression, maybe the anxiety but thankfully neither of those are a notable problem anymore.

Which just leaves the underlying problem of being a bit screwy in the mind department.
On the whole I wouldn't say it's a problem for the day to day living; I'm not paranoid, delusional or affected with any other psychosis as such but there is still something scratching away in the back of my head and it's uh... kinda unnerving.

It turned up a couple of times in 2013, once in '14 and then went away again, nothing that I'd say would cause me alarm as such but a few times in the last fortnight has me moderately concerned.

I could really do without having a full blown psychotic break tbh
that would really fuck with my studies and job you see
not to mention the fuckery that would do to future career prospects, it's kinda hard to be the doctor when you are the inpatient yourself.

Ah well

I'm shy as fuck. I will not speak to almost anyone, unless they are family.

I'm honestly surprised I was able to land a girlfriend with how shy I am.

If you know my weak spot, you can make me angry really fucking quick.

Permanent, soul-crushing depression.

Too rich. Ditto. Likewise. I'm happy to wait her popularity out. It'll honestly be interesting to see what form the fallout takes. Although when the time comes I usually don't take much enjoyment in these things. Meh.

Good talk. A notification from you always means something pleasant is on the way, lol. Although to be fair, I take it with a grain of salt, since our mutual friend Vien has sorta helped me to see your more human side.

The Hån · November 10, 2015, 10:20:46 PM

i'm lazy, I half ass almost everything and no matter how hard i try i can't un-half ass, and i can't keep focus too long. Also, i have a tendency to fuck up the most simple of tasks without knowing how or why.

I would say "kill yourself", but you might actually would.

I rely on drugs, prescription and fermented, to keep myself in a stable mental state.

The point is that I don't feeeeeeeeeel like it. That's what work ethic means--your capacity for willingness to do work.

If I stopped "preaching" I would just find some other way to waste my time. That's my flaw.

Aether · November 10, 2015, 11:49:55 PM

It's either laziness or shyness.

They're the two that have screwed me the most in life, at the very least.

Winy · November 10, 2015, 11:58:44 PM

nosejob · November 11, 2015, 08:01:15 PM

Eh I am a bit shy.

Once I get to know someone I'm a completely different person from when they met me. To the people that I've met and still talk to, it really means nothing, but I feel like I've missed out on so many opportunities and relationships because I'm stubbornly shy.

Yu · November 11, 2015, 08:09:57 PM

Now that I think about it, self depreciation.
