Do you ever feel afraid of expressing who you really are?

I'm very self expressive of my identity as a plastic bag.

Everyone at some point or another has felt this way, including myself. I've found that age really helped me break out of my shell. I feel, in some ways that much of my teen years were kind of wasted because I had no real personality or identity of my own. Always formed role models in order to feel more important. Fortunately, this fell off me with age, and I no longer really have issues with self-identification anymore.

But here's the funny part (or should I say, the less 'expected' part) it was reading (mostly manga) that helped me develop an identity or the ability to express who I really am from inside. I learned how people behave and act through repeatedly reading and watching manga/anime, and as I began getting more informed with how everything works based on personality, and the social aspect of these chapters, it's like my personality just activated inside of me.

Doesn't come over night. I'm assuming you are in your teen years if you are still experiencing this? It really does get easier. Just keep reading and learning, it will help your personality activate more brightly.

I got tired of expressing who i really am. I wore my heart on my sleeve for all to see all of my life. It just does not work anymore. Other people seem to be not worthy enough to see me as i am. Their ego's continually want to use my honesty and vulnerabilities for their own benefit, at the cost of true life meetings.

I rarely express myself to people these days, maybe I let snippetts out to some I trust.

I used to meet people the same as myself every now and then, you meet someone else who's ego does not need bolstering, and it truly is a great thing, but that is almost non-existent these days.
idk about you but the closer a girl gets to looking like ronald mcdonald, the more aroused i become. CAV

LOL I'll answer seriously now too.

I've been trying to find ways to increase my confidence. If I could be more confident than I currently am then I'm sure it'll be easier to express myself as well. Right now I could only be half-hearted about it, seeing that it's easy to appear cool by just being a car guy.

We have a lot of friends in and outside of the foodom (food kingdom) and I am pretty low fat and good looking. But thanks anyway.

The problem is I still have no clue who I am supposed to be. Usually a person if defined going through life by how they take on and react/shape their reality. As I spend every day locked away and never interact with life I don't really know what type of person I am.

Just how strong is self, if you stop believing you exist do you stop existing. What is reality are we real or is just our perception, can we be a mind without a body, maybe we're just simulations all alone and everyone around us is fake, maybe we're fake thinking we're real.

I once went so crazy and isolated I started thinking I was going to disappear, staring at my hands expecting them to fade like dust in the wind.

Yeah, at work. Upon hiring me, my boss and other coworkers hinted that she liked that I put I was bright and friendly (on a good day) because I had read reviews saying that a lot of the workers had bad attitudes.

With that, I approached my job as if it was my first acting gig; my work persona is one of the sweetest people with a high-pitched voice you'll ever meet. And then there's my account on pretty much every website I go on... which sometimes says otherwise, or at least takes away some of the innocence that others think I have.

Yes, I have a tendency to make exasperating noises when touched even a little bit and my primary function is getting food put into me.

Jokes aside, nah, I'm proud of and passionate about the things I do so I have no trouble in expressing myself, I gladly share them with people who are interested in the stuff I do.

"Do you ever feel like a plastic bag?"
Basically everyone who has a man bun.

Jokes aside, when I was a kid all I wanted was to be "one of the boys". Grew up without a sister so I mostly hang out with my brothers and their friends. But my Mom didn't liked it. She wanted me to dress like a girl and be pretty and stuff. We used to fight all the time about it.

I don't have troubles expressing who I am right now in front of my family. They love me just the way I am. Or they just don't bother anymore because I don't listen anyway.

I didn't see American Beauty until I was 26 (2 years ago) so I can't really say if it holds up, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it.
