So many. Not being able to regulate emotions, which led to me throwing "temper tantrums" kind of. 7 years of therapy and I think I had major breakthrough. I am still evaluating it, but I am fairly confident that I might have overcome it.

When I'm mentally unwell, I isolate myself instead of sharing the load with the loved ones in my life that would jump at the opportunity to support me. I fear being seen in a vulnerable state and given enough rumination I can easily find "reasons" why maybe it would be for the best if I disappeared for a bit instead.

I haven't been able to directly overcome it yet, but I've become aware enough to communicate it and people in my life at least know the signs of it happening now.

I get jealous / insecure with my partner drinking with single dudes, I'm working on it, but definitely haven't overcome it

There have been a couple of people who used to maybe not treat me the best. Over the past couple of years, they have drastically changed that behavior. It's been challenging for me to ALLOW them to change and not respond to them the same way I used to (defensively).

Whats an emotionally-immature behavior or tendency you've noticed in yourself?

Coming up with "clever" non-answers as answers to undermine questions that prompt me to do some hard introspection and grow.

Have you been able to overcome it and grow?

I'll let you know after posting this reply.

I'd rather say something clever than accurate or useful... and often do.

I still occasionally say negative and dismissive stuff about myself, like "no one cares for me" or "I really don't matter" etc. At least I'm able to catch myself sometimes, and last time it happened was at a party where it was hard to hear what anyone was saying unless you really focused

Not good at receiving criticism in the moment, kind of defensive. I can hear it but cannot immediately say "yeah you are right", it feels more like insult than help. Some of this is leftover hangups from my ex, who was quite cutting, mean about it. But some just my own immature tendencies. I have pretty much learned not to react and wait until I can think about it more objectively.

I react defensively when my partner asks innocuous questions bc I learned at an early age there was nothing I could do that was "right." It annoys me that I do this, but he's never "hit back" which deepens my trust and lowers my defenses over time.

I used to be a stereotypical wall puncher, it was so fucking embarassing. Been sober off the drywall dust for a few years now

as soon as i realize someone is an idiot irl i do my best to be annoying and waste their time

i just cant stop myself

All or nothing, crab-in-a-bucket mentality. Being aware of it helps...

Assuming the personality or attitude of someone based on their resting facial expression. I know it's wrong but I don't know how to turn it off. Especially in a professional setting where everyone has to be polite all the time so its meaning as a social cue of how annoyed they are with you diminishes.

Not helped by the fact that I know I can be annoying to other people without realizing it.

I have outsourced this need to my partner.

I can't focus at all. I blame the government for banning most focus enhancing drugs.
