Answer 1

man ...i had same problem ..hard  to make eye contatct...but went to rx..he gave me ativan...works ..i feel like i on top of the world

Answer 2

by caring a great deal more about what I think of myself.  You have to be your own best friend, then what others may think doesn't amount to a hill of beans.

Answer 3

Read The Four Agreements and work them....hardest thing you will do in a long time...easy to understand...difficult to incorporate them, but your life will be transformed...if you work it...as a discipline and a practice.

Answer 4

it's easy. my identity is not what others say it is. My identity is in Christ. I live because He lives. I could care less if you hate me. big whoop. there are quite a few other people who DO love me. live your life. life it to the fullest. I don't think you can do it if you're looking for love in other's opinions of yourself. if you let people dictate to you who you are, you will live one heck of a miserable life. Love is found in Jesus. :)
