But apparently not sick enough where I stop caring unfortunately. I'd really like to get to that point though. I mean REALLY would like to get to that point. Hopefully I can hit a breaking point one of these days, and just get out there and make a fool out of myself until i finally can say "who cares." Nobody does anyways. Cause This is really a sad way to live......or "exist" actually, doesn't deserve to be called "living." Because If that's how I value myself, by what other people think of me, what little depth and substance I have within myself......is completely washed down the drain. Very pathetic 27 years of existence. Anyways, I have no questions here at all, just a mindless pessimistic rant really.......so i apologize if you wasted 30 seconds or so reading this.
I'm sick of caring what people think

Well that's what I meant to clarify actually, just typed it without proofing it. I just want to stop caring about what random people think about me who I don't even know, particularly in a social atmosphere. I wouldn't want to stop caring all together, I agree that that would be unhealthy.

Acknowledging that you're sick of it and that you need a change is the right step. I believe that we never completely stop caring. That would be going from one extreme to another and neither extreme is healthy. It's healthy to care what others think, but not to the point where we obsess and worry needlessly. You would have to make an effort to stop your concern right before you start becoming anxious. Ask yourself if other's opinions of you are worth making yourself sick over. You can't control what they think and most people will think and believe whatever they want whether right or wrong. It's not your problem so don't make it your problem.

Whatever you choose to do, some people are going to like it and some are going to dislike it. Some will think whatever it is you're doing is cool, others that you must be an idiot. So given that fact, you may as well just do whatever it is that you want to do. As the cliche goes, you can't please all of the people all of the time. It's your life - your one and only life - so don't waste it worrying what other people think, because you can be sure that they aren't worrying about what you think of them.
