How do I stop being so judgemental?
look at yourself and notice that you have flaws also
I feel like I'm being judged everywhere I go.. How do I stop this?
When I go to the supermarket, or anywhere else public, to get something I feel as though people are always looking and judging me. I don't know what to do or say to these people. How do I stop this? Is it my appearance or do I smell bad? Anything helps, thank you.
How to stop worrying about what others think of me?
I have constant anxiety worrying about what others think of me to the point of the constant anxiety wearing on my immune system. For example, I prefer to eat lunch at my desk at work to relax and unwind rather than eating with my co-workers in the break room and I'm afraid they may think I'm unfriendly or don't like them. It is a small company and most people are close knit there, so it is even harder to eat lunch at my desk without someone saying something. Or I'm worried about other people judging me based on how I used to be in the past rather than judging me for how I am in the present time. For example, afraid of people judging me for how I was in high school if they happen to run into one of my old classmates. I've grown and matured a lot since high school and don't want to be judged for my past. Do I have to let go and realize that I can't control what others think about me-that I can only control what I think of myself? Any other ideas for how to stop worrying about what others are thinking about me?
How do I get over my fear of being judged? I am continually worried about how I may be looking or dressed up. I fear that people may talk about me.
I have read this in one of the Akbar Birbal stories....I read it really long back , so i may have my own touch to it.But here it goes....A man always used to dress in a way that he attracted a lot of attention when he walked on the streets.Annoyed with all the unnecessary attention , gossips and humour made on him, he went to Birbal to find a solution to make all others stop mocking at him.Birbal thought for a while and he went in and brought a wide mouthed vessel filled with milk upto its brim. He said , " I will give you a solution if you take this vessel and circle the entire town , all its streets and get back here with not a single drop of milk spilt " The man was confused but believing that Birbal will be the only one to get him out of the problem,he obeyed.The man having his eyes on the milk and walking ever so carefully so as to not spill the milk, did exactly as Birbal said ; walked through all the streets of the town and got back to Birbal . He was very happy to have brought the milk without spilling.Birbal asked , " So you roamed the entire town, how many people made fun of you today?"The man said , " Oh MY!! I don't know , I did not notice, I was so focussed on bringing all the milk back!!!"Well I guess you have figured out the answer. We human beings are born judgemental, we judge at every point of time.Judge people, emotions , nature and surroundings. If you are preoccupied with something you want to achieve, nothing can affect you. I always think of this story when I feel people are staring at me and start to become conscious.So, relax , sing , be happy and achieve what you want. After all this world is yours too!!!
Recently 18, want to buy cigarettes but too scared of being judged?
Just recently turned 18. I already drink alcohol and I smoke pot sometimes. I have not really smoked cigarettes much before but I recently went to a strip club like on the 9th and chain smoked there because everyone else was and I felt left out. Ever since then I've been using ecigs with nicotine. I feel so bad .. I hate abusing substances the way I do but I'm so stressed and my parents won't let me be independent. They don't know anything about all this. I really am craving some cigarettes so bad .. I wanna go buy some but I look really young and I'm scared, I just want a pack and I'll make it last a month but I'm craving it so bad what do I do
