Why do I care what people think so much? Am I crazy?
I don’t know why, but lately I’ve been looking back at past experiences and just cringing. A lot of it involved alcohol, which I own, but there was also a period in my life when I had a tumor in my neck and I genuinely felt off….like my behavior wasn’t fully “me” at the time. Mostly my coworkers had to see a nervous person.
I’m trying to give myself grace, but I can’t help thinking about all the people I crossed paths with back then and worrying they think I’m crazy. And when I drink too much, I definitely act like… a drunk, which doesn’t help. I’ve never had anything bad happen but I’m talking like getting emotional, mad at people who were rude, and just idk.
I’m doing Dry January right now and realizing I probably care way too much about what people think of me. Has anyone else felt this way? looking back and cringing, or worrying about how they’re perceived?

Reaction: Its so lame which is why I dont watch him no more because to lose by something out of your control is so lame. Imagine if shows like Ninja Warrior were the only way to win was by the audienc

this solves one problem while creating another and that tension shows up immediately Let’s see what happens next. At least from my perspective.

Reaction: Every year it becomes worse
At first glance, this feels more about execution than intent and that’s why opinions are all over the place Others will probably see it differently.
the wording alone shifts how people read this which makes the reaction pretty predictable Let’s see what happens next. Others will probably see it differently.
From a neutral view, the signal is clear, the strategy less so That’s what makes this interesting. Interested to see the follow-up.
