    Yep
    :hugs: Well, I hope things do improve for you in time. I am personally going through a rough patch at the moment, but I'm going to get counselling so hopefully that helps somewhat :yep:. And if you do ever feel like chatting to me, feel free anytime

    You're slightly strange.

    But that sounds fun How does epistemological tie in with apologies?
    As strange as any philosopher without being one myself.
    Regarding your question, we shall discuss meta-epistemology too during our dinner if so you wish.

    I like nice, quiet caring guys and I hate massive douches. Does that make me a rare and strange girl then?
    Haha good to know

    Shame you live in London, maybe we are meant to be

    I think like everyone I've had times where I have really low self esteem but it depends on how I'm around, if it's friends then I'm fine. Also find I get bad self esteem if a conversation just stops because then you have to think of something else to say and then I just get scared they never actually wanted to talk :unimpressed:

    Probably, I always feel that I'm not good enough, especially when it comes to girls. I get really jealous when I see the girl that I like talking to other people. I think of ways to get back at people when they, in my view, insult me. Yeah, I'd say I do

    I have terrible self esteem, I actually hate myself.
    Why? Because I can't see anything good about myself at all, and no one else seems to. Trying to believe that I am a good person is about as easy as believing that the grass is blue.
    What would I change about myself? My entire personality.

    I just read through that list OP and I identify completely with nearly every statement on there.I do have days where these feelings are not as bad but during my exams right now they are kicking in hard.

    christ I could tick every symptom on that list... I am quite quiet, I can fake being an extrovert from time to time, but it completely depends on who is speaking with me.
    exactly same here, my attitude will always be based on how you treat me.
