I agree to being yourself, I've always told people that "cool" to me isn't necessarily what I'm interested in, I find people "cool" when they are truly themselves and have their own deep interests. I think the biggest problem for most people is other peoples acceptance to other peoples interests. Some people will shut off as soon as you start to talk about something they arent interested in which can lead to alot of awkward situations. That being said, you're completely right with the listening aspect. If more people just decided to listen instead of waiting for their turn to talk, I'm sure everyone would find alot more interesting things in one an other

I isolate a lot because of low self confidence. I never feel like I’m enough for people.. not interesting enough, or fun enough, it’s exhausting. So I isolate. I don’t even respond to texts anymore, and it eats away at me. It’s very lonely, yet I don’t want to talk to people, because it’s not fun. I numb by myself with scrolling, alcohol, binge eating, smoking weed. And In return, that’s all made me even more boring. I feel my personality getting more dull with the addictions and lack of social interactions. Idk how to pull myself out of this vicious cycle

[@404OG]

drop the alcohol first. exercise; starting with walks etc. progressing to workouts delete the stupid apps, keep the good ones once you start to exercise you will feel inclined to eat more nutrition in time your mental capacity will open up to allow you to retain more knowledge good luck

[@medicalpol]

keeping yourself clean, wearing clean and stylish clothes, sleeping an appriopriate amount of time, eating until you're not the hungry, drinking water, all of this goes a long way into making room for confidence to come in. It seems basic but it works. I'm not telling as soon as you do it you'll be super confident, but I have observed from personal experience that I also tend to isolate myself, and self loathe when I neglect eating, showering or sleeping. Next up, you could try doing/joining up classes for whatever activity you might find interesting, like drawing, pottery, music lessons, archery, whatever you find cool. Focus on the activity, but at the same time, try striking up a conversation or two to people there, maybe even ask them to go for a meal or a coffee. After all you have something in common (the class/activity you both do), so that's something you can talk about with your new friend. A great activity is exercise, stuff like running, the gym (and even walks) are great. The gym is really good cause as you keep showing up, you'll become more and more fit, and that might improve your self perception, in turn increasing your confidence. It might be hard at the beginning, but keep showing up, even when you dont feel like it, cause it'll pay off. Tackling addictions like alcohol, weed, and similar is very hard if you dont have a proper social group. Stuff like this is a problem, but they're also the first things you might do when you're stressed, depressed or lonely, acting as fast-acting "solutions" to your bad feels. In turn, their effects make cause more problems, so it's a really bad feedback loop, hence why you gotta have friends to support you, so that when you feel bad, you can contact them instead. It's sadly not as easy as just cutting drinking (tho you might try that, it never hurts) Making art, and (intentionally) consuming it might help with the personality bit, as you'll know what you like, and can talk about stuff you've seen or made. Stuff like music, games (look out for indie games, cause AAA games rarely inspire me as art), paintings, or just doodles. Lastly, just keep showing up, doing it, even if you suck at the beginning, even if you have bad days, if you keep going through, you'll eventually make it out of the tunnel, Good luck bro.

[@zonydragon1141]

As someone with social anxiety, the 1# thing you need to remember is that your imagination will always be worse than reality. Take it step by step, focus on one thing. Stop drinking, then try going outside more, at least go see the light of day in your yard. Talk to yourself like you're talking to a good friend, especially in hard moments. Whatever you do, don't self deprecate because the more you tell yourself something, the more you'll believe it, so tell yourself nicer things from now on (they don't have to be cheesy, just fair). I know it's easier said than done, that's why you gotta take it little by little to build up the momentum. It is absolutely doable and i believe in you man

[@ITMenterprises]

You're doing gods work. Nobody ever gives the little details to how conversations work, like, asking questions back, its such a simple thing that makes converations flow yet nobody brings it up, its part of the active listening part. Something that can seriously help is making a lil basic script for yourself with "goal posts", once a conversation starts (maybe through observation), and the person you've asked about something is finished talking, think of a relating question to the topic, even if its vaguely related (the video talks about this). People LOVE talking about themselves and their interests so it works great just to be that listener, and then you can make your exit if you dont want to talk/dont know what to say, it can be as simple as "well it was interesting and fun talking but I gotta go im on a schedule" with a polite smile and the other person will usually let you get off and do your own thing etc etc. You can customize your intros and outros to your pleasing. All it takes is making one small conversation with somebody to open up the flood gates to your own confidence, you'll actually feel pretty damn normal and relaxed after. Its really hard to get a basic structure when you're in the dark, these videos help alot

[@Gnomesrule]

I have always felt that diversity encourages unity. If you are only worried about how you are similar to others, you will never sit comfortable with the reality of nuance.

Great message. Owning your fails with humour is great because you get to feel good about yourself for a: not doing an impression of a coatstand, b: breaking through the awkwardness and taking the social initiative for once c: being funny, which inspires a lot more confidence than just feeling bad about your own awkwardness d: entertaining others and e: not dealing with a memory of embarrassment but a reminiscing of merriment of which you were the center. The challenging bit is to let go of being too serious about how you appear to others. I tel myself: I wasn't being smart in that actual moment anyway, doubling down on the hilarity won't make it worse. And hey, they may be laughing at me, instead of with me, whichever way, "this person made me laugh" is not the worst reputation to have.

Beautiful video. It just popped up on my KZbin and I naturally clicked on it. I've had, and still have sometimes that feeling about something that I've said is wrong or awkward. I didn't align myself with people that resonated with my emotions and values, I was really hurt. I've put out on my Insta various perspectives and emotions, looking for people and their likes to validate them. I was wrong. People didn't care and it just pushed me back with it. Now I'm more open, as I've realized that I can share my emotions and opinions (not hurting anyone around me though) and I feel better. So, your message that nobody cares gives ourselves the freedom of expression without the fear of what others might think. Thank you for your contribution for collective consciousness. Wish you and all beautiful people here to find their true authentic self. Lots of love ❤️

Totally Agree! What I would add to that is that if you are passionate about something very niche it is good to give a bit of context about the topic and express why it is important to you.

Also just a reminder to not forget that when people are telling awesome stories it is but a highlight and their lives will undoubtedly be made up for the majority out of mundane situations too.

I don't see myself as a very confident person (I'm slowly managing to overcome that) and because of that I don't think I come off as particularly confident either, but I met a new person through an event where I was speaking and afterwards we went out. We were talking about confidence and one of the first things that person said to me was that they were surprised I didn't feel confident because I absolutely came off like I was when I spoke. They said it with such earnest and so casually that it kind of shocked me into realising, 'oh wow I really perceive myself in such a distorted way'. Idk guess I'm just trying to say I'd do absolute numbers if I just had confidence in myself and it's a little bit silly, but also really interesting, that such a trivial thing like our self perception stops us from being the best versions of ourselves.

With people being nice already, it's kind of easy to recreate that energy because it's already there and you just gotta bump it up higher, but when someone (let's say you have to be in the same place with them for at least 1 hour) is rude or dismissive or arrogant, YOU have to be the one to create that energy AND transfer it to the person if you want it to be a nice encounter. I'd like to see you talk about this in general. Obviously, rudeness mostly isn't deliberate, it might be that they're having a bad day, or maybe you have such different cultures that their normal is 'rude' to you, etc. Just a suggestion, peace
