What’s a personality trait you have that makes you miserable?

My anxiety makes it hard for me to sit back and enjoy myself when things are going well. I’m always waiting for something to go wrong.

Overthinking every single thing.

Even writing this comment lol

Empathy. I really wish I could just turn that shit off sometimes.

Wwhen I start liking someone, I like them a lot. It’s very intense. There’s been a few people I think I’ve accidentally alienated because I’ve come on too strong too early. This makes me miserable because when that happens, it sorta feels like I’m being abandoned, even though I know it’s my fault.

I’ve gotten better for this as I’ve gotten older. I’m starting to swing hard the other way, actually. Now it takes me a very long time to warm up to new people, to the point that I think people usually don’t have the patience for it, and when I do start liking someone, it’s a very gradual thing. This makes me miserable too because there’s never been a time in my life where I can just click with someone in a normal way.

Avoidance as a coping mechanism.

I have a ” bad feeling that’s usually right” and a ” vivid intuition about things I don’t like. I just know what is going to happen next, and I can’t prevent it. Like when something happens in my life , in somebody’s life, or in the world, that some ppl may see harmless or not worth the fuss and have that sweet blessing of ” you never know attitude” . But it’s easy for me to predict the outcome . And it’s usually right, and it’s tormenting. I hate myself for it. Why do I have to know ??? It just makes me miserable

Impulsivity, I can keep it on the low for as much as I can at some point I always explode in the most wildest way.

I’m a serial interrupter. Ughhhh.

Anxiety, overthinking, pessimism, cynicism, paranoia

Low self esteem
