Confessions Thread...
Okay, I had this idea. We're having a lot of threads lately confessing feelings, asking questions, being very "deep" with one another. And then I thought... well, whenever I type on one of those threads, I feel awkward, like I really shouldn't be saying what I'm saying.
So I thought of this.
We all have doubts at the backs of our minds. We all have sorrows, we all have fears. And if there is anything- anything- you want to say, you can say it here.
It can be confidential, but it doesn't have to be. Nothing discussed in this thread should be, you know, loudly proclaimed to the world. There will be no judgments in this thread spoken aloud. Unless you want to add on or comfort the person writing, don't say anything.
There. Use it wisely.

@ Butterfly, think about it this way, being afraid of death is much better that seeking it, fearing death is the most fundamental fear, just try to live your life to the fullest. I used to never care if I died, I was just afraid of pain. I literally didn't care if a car would ever hit me or something, I didn't seek it, but I wasn't concerned. Recently I started worrying about it more, it's a strange feeling.

I'm in-between and I wish I could be on one side or another. I want to be a better Christian but I also believe that some beliefs are a little too strict. My school and my parents and my faith all have opposing political beliefs and I don't know what I believe. I fear challenging my beliefs by reading other media... but I also want to learn more.
I feel like this dipped into the deep metaphysical stuff. :-)

This is going to be so hard.
Ok, here goes...
I well... pick my eyebrows. Whew, I said it. I only do it when I'm thinking really hard, or am stressed out, but I have almost literally no eyebrows. People look at me weirdly and I think it might be part of why I have no friends. So yeah...
Also I cry way too easily. Like, I'll be trying to talk to my mom seriously, and I'll suddenly burst into tears. It's really annoying and I'm sick of it.
I think that's all.

Ohmygosh Wren, you and I have pretty much the same problem. I've pretty much broken the habit now, but... I pick my eyelashes. Pull them out. My parents are always scolding me for doing it, and it's terrible. I pick my eyebrows too, but not drastically. My mom says it's obvious, though. Sometimes I have chunks missing and it's really disturbing. I'm working on stopping, but my alternative is cracking my knuckles, and that isn't so great in public. And I've heard it isn't good for you.
(September 18, 2015 - 7:51 pm)
It's the fluid in your joints, and cracking your knuckles isn't harmful at all. It's a nervous habit of mine.

That's reassuring. My dad says people put those rumors out because they don't like the sound. It feels good, though, I think. My piano teacher's sister studies bones, and she said that it's just popping air bubbles in your joints or something like that. Nothing to be worried about.

I pick out my eyelashes too! Thanks to Keeper of the Lost Cities, where the main character had that habit....
(September 19, 2015 - 3:29 pm)
I actually do my eyelashes too, but not as drastically. I'm actually glad I'm not alone with having such a weird bad habit. My parents used to scold me, but I guess they got used to it and stopped. I find that whenever I start to pick them if I convince myself it's horrible and awful and disgusting then I stop. It also helps to keep your hands busy, if your doing something else, you can't pick them.

1. I'm really controlling, maybe not on here but I get SO stressed out about school and then I have to do group work for one of my classes and the teacher stresses on it SO much and ... now the people in my group hate me because I want them to work instead of talking, and then they're all like "OK OK" and do one problem after ten minutes, and then slowly go back to talking.
2. I'm really insecure. I don't like I how I look and I don't think I'm doing enough with my life. I don't see whats the point to life sometimes.

I completely have the same problems, both of them. Optimism is powerful, though. You're an amazing person!
(September 25, 2015 - 8:25 pm)
It's kind of the opposite with me. I will pretty much do everthing when I'm in a group, because, most of the time I'm capable. And I like to be in charge. People don't seem to mind, but I don't like that I do all the work. At the same time, it's hard not to do all the work, because in my mind I can do it better than my groupmates can. I work my best independently. I really don't like working with others. That's not to say that I don't like other people, actually, I am very social. I just can't work. And if I'm witha friend I might talk the whole time and not get anything done because they distract me. Oh, well.

l have an imaginary friend. From a story that l made up and are still working on for about six years. And to me, they're just as real as reality.

I do ballet, (duh) and ever since I got pointe shoes, I pop(Crack, whatever you say) my toes all the time.

I love my little pony. I'm way too old for it but oh well.
