Sometimes I wonder if I even lack a sense of self. Previous therapist told me I seem to have a good understanding of who I am. But only after they asked about how I would describe myself and all I could say is I like art and I don't like hurting people. ? It seems kinda weird for them to say I have a clear view of myself just off of that. But it's true I don't want to hurt people. It's my #1 thing. But my clothing style is always changing. I've gone through like 3 different room aesthetic changes in the past few years and I already wanna do another but I can't cause I'm broke. I started as a bio major in college, now I'm an art major and I think all the time about switching to psych but I'm too far in and I can't allow myself to do that. I don't know what I want to do in the future. Simultaneously I have a lot of different things I want to do. And nothing at the same time, and when I think of my future I see a void. I don't know how others see me at all. And I tend to ask my friends questions about how I'm preceived by then so I can more clearly understand who I am. My gender identity is also all sorts of fucked up idek what I am in regards to that so I just call myself nonbinary. Which seems to fit but some days it doesn't. it's weird. Sometimes I look in the mirror and have no idea who I am looking at and I might dissociate. My interests switch quite rapidly. I have a TON of shit in my room because of it. From skateboarding to various fixations in art that I spent tons of money on supplies. different game consoles and lotsss of different games. To various collections I dropped loads on that I'm not as interested in now. I just feel like I am always shifting. Though some things remain the same. I'll always believe in human rights and I have certain political views that will never change in regards to that. But some are a little more flip floppy or I just don't know how to feel all together. So idk. I really can't even tell if I don't know who I am or not. Throughout my whole life I've always thought "idek who I am" but my therapist said I seem to have a stable sense of self so now I'm like ?? Maybe I do ?? I have no idea. Curious if anyone has any thoughts on this. And I'd love to hear other people's experiences with their sense of self, or lack thereof
