Do you ever wonder how others view you on here?

No, I know it doesn't matter how they view you. I know that and I often do NOT think of how they view me. Hell, I wouldn't write about all my anxiety issues so much. I guess I do b/c it is anonymous. I could never really share all this with people in my life like family or other friends.

BUT, It just hit me that anxiety and sad things do crop up on my posts often enough- b/c My life is very low and I am struggling in all ways. I thought, God I can't imagine how people see me - probably a sad, weak pathetic thing. That in itself is my bully voice talking, I know, but it just hit me , I wonder if some just pity me (that is the last thing I EVER want ). Anyway it is just something that creeped into my mind... I see myself as these low things, but I hope I don't appear so pathetic to many.

I don't believe anyone would think of anyone as weak or pathetic, because the lot of us here actually come to SW to vent and bare ourselves and share in details things we normally would never ever dare to talk about irl.
All of us here have a life that no one in SW knows about, they just know what you are sharing. What you want them to read. And if someone ever dared to looked down on you or pity you then you are not responsible for their stupid, judgemental mentality.
Don't let them discourage you from expressing yourself, don't prive yourself from this outlet because of some bullies.
And if the bully is your inner voice, then by all means, try to tell them that you are accepted no matter what you post, and you are beautiful and amazing no matter your issues, or actually, because of your issues and who you are. 💗
Much strength to you.

I think a lot of us, including me, come here to vent. I tell complete strangers things i would never tell some one that i know.
You appear to be a lovely woman who shares her hopes, dreams, intelligence, humor and kindness along with the challenges and struggles we all face in one form or another. I see your willingness to be open and vulnerable not as a weakness but a strength which I hope will help to bring you all the things you want in life.

@OlderSometimesWiser Thank you my friend, that meant a lot🪻🌺

I do. Sometimes I’m sure people just see me as whiny and dramatic
I long ago quit caring what other people think about me or view me .....

and TBH.... I am much happier.

Most of all, I'd like to be viewed as respectful and secondly, intellectual. But I know that you can't always get what you want. Regardless of that, I present myself in that manner whether it is the view of others or not.

Bearing your soul doesn't make you weak or pathetic. It takes strength to put yourself before those who might judge and criticize you. You are a wonderful spirit, and I enjoy interacting with your posts.

You are a sweetheart: kind and honest. I like you.

I think some on here like me. And it means a lot because I have no friends or social life offline. I only talk to my parents, coworkers, and my fellow SWifties (SWimmers? SWeoples?)
Coralmist · 41-45, F
@JoyfulSilence Ty Joyful, that was very kind. :) I call them Sweeps lol .. or sometimes SWeepies haha. SWeople's works too!!

@Coralmist

SWee-Pie makes me think of that Popeye movie, LOL!
I think it would be natural for others to see one's posts as being a representation of oneself, more or less.
Friendlyperson · 26-30, F
@SomeMichGuy obviously what you share might represent a side of you, but it is never a representation of who you are. I don't think anyone should pity or judge anyone here, because they only see a very small portion of them, no matter how much they open up.
@Friendlyperson What we share comes from what we are, have experienced, have observed, etc.

Whether we share much or little, it represents us after a fashion.

Is it a perfect representation? lmao Of course not. But what is? Even meeting people face-to-face doesn't give you all info about them.
Friendlyperson · 26-30, F
@SomeMichGuy Of course. Nothing could represent you fully. And that's what should strip the people of the ability to judge, but then some would still lurk in and pretend to know better. 🤷‍♀

@twiigss Ty so much Twiggs🥺
@Coralmist You're most welcome :)

I just automatically assume many focus on bad things. Something to criticize. So I try to not overshare to not give them something to hold onto.
I see you as a kind ,talented thoughtful person who doesn't give herself enough credit.
