Do you hate your personality?

No, I like my personality, and I think it is my strongest point. I only wish I had the ability to share it with more people, that I wasn't so afraid to open up and just be myself no matter who is around.
But there have been times when I have been in a bad headspace and have believed I don't even have a personality or at the very most just have a very **** one. Those are the times where I need to get my head out of my butt and just get to know myself again.

I hate hearing that :(

I think accepting yourself is the first step of dealing with your anxiety. I am still working on that, just takes time. Also, don't let people fool you.. no one is perfect :)

I don't hate my personality, but when I see someone capable of being the fool and not giving a sh*t I do wish I could do such things.

i seem to always feel that i'm outside my comfort zone, so its difficult for me to show my sense of humour and personality ...one thing i dislike is that i get too nervous and so i may come off as too serious, i can laugh alot but actually being funny and chirpy is rare for me unless i had a glass of beer, just to take the edge off or unless i was around a friend i knew well.

I'm this way too :/ I have a lot of personality but it really only comes out around people I feel comfortable around. Otherwise I too come off as boring.

I'm not sure if I hate it or not. I guess mainly because when I'm myself I am always too random and funny for people to handle or something. They just act like I'm the weirdest person they have ever met. I have to 'act' a certain way to gain acceptance. So then I tone certain things down and accent others. Or sometime I will go into turtle mode and just be the 'shy/quite guy'.

Wow, yes, sounds like me, the way you say "It's like I've lost the feel of what is actually funny and what isn't. And the thing that kills me is that I wasn't always this way. In the past I was described as fairly funny and outgoing." I'm not good with words, but I think that the way you said it indicates a specific kind of pathological result of social phobia. At one point in my life I was a happy and outgoing child with adult-like social skills, and now I will "blank" in conversation and have nothing to say because I have no sense of how a conversation should go. Can anyone put my idea in better words?

I'm such a nerd and honestly I hate it now. Nothing good has ever come from it and I've never been able to mix well with the people around me because of it.

Me to a T.

People think I'm stupid or slow because sometimes I don't know how to respond to things they say. My brain freezes and I have to nod and smile like an idiot and say "yeah" and giggle nervously. Blech.

Nah, i'm over that, sort of.
My personality isn't that bad at all, but people in general tend to not like me.
I've come to the conclusion that those people can go to hell. I don't care if i'm only capable of befriending 1 in every 1000 person, I refuse to change for someone else.

God forbid if I ever come out of my 'shell' and gain some confidence, I think i'd really give people a reason to not like me by being a dick. At least then the negative energy I get from them would be justified.

I just feel as though my confidence and life have been sucked out of me. In spite of the taunting and abuse I was a pretty happy, confident child. Then slowly all of that disappeared.

I don't really hate my personality. I just wish my old self would come back and for me to stop caring so much about what other people think.

No, I really love my personality. The only problem is that it doesn't seem to be very compatible with the rest of the world, so I'll have to struggle A LOT to be myself, do what I really want to do, be truly happy and satisfied, etc.
