My self-confidence with regards to my looks everyday is a never-ending see-saw between "I'm fine" and "I'm awful". I'm worried that if I ever met up with someone from OKCupid or something that they'd see the real me that doesn't always look as good from the right angles or whatever.

The future looks uncertain for me. I quit my job earlier last year and it's been hard getting myself to go for a new one to renew my financial independence. I have experience in my field now, but the field is ever changing and there's already new things I'm expected to know that I never learned before.

Further, the field I have experience in is not particularly pleasant for me. It's a non-stop barrage of judgement from peers who are significantly more skilled in it than myself. I grew up thinking I was relatively smart, but I have never felt more dumb than when I started working.

The future looks uncertain. We'll see where this goes.
