Why am i obsessed with how people perceive me
It’s really easy for me to spiral through my own inner worlds about what people are thinking or saying about me. Why is this?


It’s really easy for me to spiral through my own inner worlds about what people are thinking or saying about me. Why is this?
I feel like I’m always caught in weird power dynamics in friendships or the workplace that either leave people with a unique soft spot for only me or a passive aggression that wants to see me suffer or degrade me in some kind of way.
Especially people who view themselves as powerful figures are more likely than not to fall into one of these extremes.
Why is that? Even if I try to meet everyone with kindness, it feels like there’s something I’m missing.
Anyone who previously went into NYU through spring start liberal studies- what is the best way to fill this time right now in your opinion?
Me and along with so many people I have met starting in the spring feel super discouraged and left out as our peers start their college years and we have to wait until Dec/Jan. For me personally, NYU was one of three prestigious universities that I was picking from and even though I got in for spring, I selected NYU.
Even having willingly made this choice, I can’t help but wonder if it was the right one/worth it.
Any words of advice are welcome!
