Hi Tacking Into the Wind. Thank u so much for your helpful advice;I'm glad ur feeling better :) .

Hey Blueberry. I completely felt like that after the breakdown of a past relationship, it completely erased the little confidence I had at the time. I wish I could give you some proper advice about how to overcome it but as you've probably seen from some of my posts I'm pretty messed up atm too lol....

What makes you think you do silly things? Do people around u criticise you? If they don't and it's mainly sel...

Thank you for your reply sauer;it means alot. I'm glad you seem to be finally gaining control.Hopefully in a while I feel that way too;I understand that it will take time though and I thank you again for taking the time to reply to my post.
