@DaisyThinks I mean I don't like being a slave to anything so I'm learning to.

It just seems that everytime I'd speak up about something, I'd get personal attacks on my appearance. Like today one of my coworkers attacked an insecurity of mine. Usually that certain comment would have me in tears, but instead I started looking at her character. Like I'd never say that to someone, the fact that you know how much I don't like to be told that, and said it anyway? just says a lot about them.

Idc how mad I am at someone, I'll have so much ammo and still choose not to use it cause I'd feel bad. I can't believe people lol and I can't believe I'm still as nice as I am with how much people try me.

People picking the most controversial thing about me and putting a label on me reducing me to that one thing and depriving me of advantages that random unknown people can enjoy.

@CrazyMusicLover interesting, one of the things on my bucket list is blocked by just that!

dancingtongue · 80-89, M

Realizing that I need to be realistic about my diminishing physical capabilities at my age.

@samueltyler2 I have emailed him a query. He is certified in oncology and completed a residency at SUNY/Brooklyn and a Fellowship at the University of Nebraska Medical School relatively recently, so presume he is fairly up to date.

dancingtongue · 80-89, M

@dancingtongue He says tissue agnostic therapy is an option when BRAF-mutations become indicated, and that he will go over that with me at our next appointment.

samueltyler2 · 80-89, M

@dancingtongue good, I don't remember all of the genes for which therapy has been invented,but, discuss it for sure.

From reaching my potential.. the horrible way I was raised, and the many scars given to me as a child on my face greatly affected my life. The scars have faded but they did their damage..

fakable

there's nothing in the way. it's just that the mirrors around you are crooked.

DaisyThinks · 26-30, F

curiouspirit · 36-40, F

Being too comfortable in my comfort zone. Not wanting to break out of my cocoon.

rockstar · 31-35, M

My family name. Responsibilities. My ambition. Then maybe these are the things that make me “me”, or they wouldn’t stop me.

DaisyThinks · 26-30, F

@rockstar thats something to think about 🤔

scooogy · 31-35, MVIP

Strangers already suspect me to be aggressive just because I do appear stressed in places like supermarkets.

TranquilLife · 56-60, F

Being judged. People who have not been through similar circumstances will make judgements.

checkoutanytime · M

People that cant be honest about themselves, is my biggest hindrance in life.

Allelse · 36-40, M

I'm pretty much as me as I'm able without breaking the law.

Sexuality. Boredom, anger at everyone's mediocrity

SW-User

Nothing.
As I see it, most are trying to be someone or something else... changing hair color, wanting to change their looks, some going further by changing their genders, etc....
I am fine with things as they are. I don't want a new face, different hair or to be someone else.
I'm comfortable with me as I am and how I was born. :)
