Truthful Confessions
 

I wanted to start this thread to show that we all have our weaknesses and sometimes it's nice to share them with others.

This is a great place to not be judged by others.

I don't intend it as a place to receive advice, just a place to show ourselves if we choose to :).

Just list 3 things about yourself that you would like to share.

I'll start.

1. I am a chronic yo-yo dieter. I've gained and lost the same 30 pounds countless times.

2. I smoke way too much.

3. I hide behind humor. A lot.

I don't expect to receive any advice and I want everyone else to feel comfortable sharing without getting any advice. I don't want any thank you's either although I bet I wasn't gonna get a lot anyway:D:D. There's that humor again.:cool:

1. A tad O/C about some stuff.
2. Don't e-mail or write letters that I should (but really don't want too).
3. Sometimes will argue, wanting to be right, not wrong!!!

1. Ditto, smoke to much, just cigarettes though, one is too many?
2. LOL fished to much too? a game, mental exercise, catch and release, don`t deplete a species you may need later for food?
3. I am normal, doubts about the rest of the world.:grouphug:

1. I quit singing to smoke.
2. I'm much too sensitive, contrary to my online persona.
3. I have a foul temper and use it.

1) I procrastinate WAY too much.

2) I have a hard time getting rid of things I don't need or use.

3) I have low self esteem and worry tooooo much.

1. smoke too much
2. I get silently grumpy
3. hold anger in

1. I get up in the middle of most nights to have a snack. I'm not sure if this is due to ambien. I have been doing it ever since I was on steriods last Spring.

2. I am impatient at times with others (especially students and my mother).

3. I use food as a crutch. Emotional eater!

1. I have a hard time contributing to conversations and no sense of humor.
2. Can't control my eating of sweets some days.
3. I get angry easily.

1-Eat out way too much

2-I'm terribly sensitive and cry at criticism...something I've worked hard at, but still take life too personally sometimes

3-I'm a wicked procrastinator

I get my feelings hurt very easily.

I have the patience of an ant sometimes

I cry at Hallmark commercials:eek:

I haven't cleaned my house in months. It's so cluttered. I want a six yard dumpster so I can just throw everything away and start fresh.

I can't stop eating! I've become a horrible snacker and I was never like this before and I'm angry with ME about that.

I smoke WAY too much, much more than I ever did before and I hate that too!

Oh no. Read everyone eles's reply and think "yeah, me too!!"

Except smoking.

1. I also smoke too much, but not as much as I used to.
2. I have a temper and don’t control it as much as I should (just ask my DH).
3. I don’t allow most people to get too close. I’ve been hurt a lot in the past
so I tend to keep my walls up to protect myself.

1. I don't say "Thank You" often enough to the people I should.
2. I get mad at the kids to easily (but it is getting better, slowly).
3. I don't say "I love You" enough to the people I should.

I smoke - not a lot - but one's too many.

I worry way too much -too much time on my hands.

I'm too insecure - and can't make decisions.

and many more.

i smoke like a 1989 dodge minivan..

i have a very short temper most of the time..

i love to yell.. if even for no reason at all..

I let people get to me.

I swear ALL the time. Every other word. Really.

I don't use food for comfort, but anymore I drink A LOT.

Movies: when bad things happen to people, no response. Bad things happen to dogs, ponies, ducks etcs - I cry like a baby.

3 more from me: I swear like a crazy woman....I've developed a sick fondness for horror movies since my dx??!!...Here's too much information: *very quietly confessing* I pee with the door open...when eveyone's home LOL

LOL, OK I do this one also, who has time to worry about shutting the door. :D

ahh peeing with the door open.. guilty.. also guilty of peeing while taking a shower.. but i think that is mostly a guy thing.. my wife thinks its gross but i see no point in getting out when it all goes into the same sewer line.


if i can't blow my nose goblins out into a tissue you can bet i will be evicting them with my finger.. and i don't care who sees me do it..



i secretly listen to classical music when no one is around...

1. Sometimes my mouth is faster than my brain.
2. I am very sensitive to what others think about me. (I hate that!)
3. I don't have patience like many here think. I am human and it takes a long time for me to trust.

1. Hi, my name is Tkrik and I'm a DOORMAT. LOL. MS is helping me get over this. I learned to say NO.

2. I hate, hate, hate that I for the most part am painfully shy. It takes me a long time to warm up and by that time I have been judged as a BIT**. So not true. Doormats are not bit**es. LOL.

3. I don't like how MS has robbed me of some of my intelligence. It really saddens me the most and is probably my most bothersome symptom.

Boy do I hear you on this one, I even hate talking to others any more because I worry that they may think I'm just stupid. I can't remember anything any more, I can't spell anything any more and I get a lot of my worlds mixed up or slurred. :(

1. If I could, I would do my life over again. I would not be the person I am today.

2. I am not as smart as I think I am.

3. I only pretend to be happy, I lost all happiness on 2/25/05 when I heard I had Multiple Sclerosis.

I'll go for a second three as well.

1. Since I've seen a couple of others confessing to it, I guess I'll confess as well. I curse...a lot. I work in a male dominated industry so I guess it comes with the territory. But, I know when to behave and who to behave around. :D

2. I refuse to let someone know they've hurt me. If they've hurt me to the point of tears, I'll leave the room because I will not allow them to see me cry.

3. If someone does something unforgivable to me (cheating, etc.) I can do a 180 just like that - cut all ties and never look back. I'm definitely not one who can remain friends with exes.

Well,when I was little around 10 years old I stole a fake( I think it was fake hehe I think it was just glass) diamond choker necklace out of my Aunt's dresser drawer it was just so pretty to me I could't help myself. I felt guilty for what I did and still do today.I think about it more so now since my Aunt died a couple of years ago. Noboby ever found out about it or who took it at least I don't think.

Also I tend to use food for comfort and I'm a yes person can't say No when I need too.
I'm little on the shy side.

I work in a very male environment and live with my 3 guys...I think I would still cuss like a sailor even if I didn't LOL I LOVE THIS! It's great to admit to all of this carp!

I work in a very male environment and live with my 3 guys...I think I would still cuss like a sailor even if I didn't LOL I LOVE THIS! It's great to admit to all of this carp! I pee in the shower too, Punk, why not?!

1) I'm a person of EXTREMES - 15 years I got too thin because I was obsessed with losing weight - now I weigh over 200 pounds. (cannot believe I admitted the number !)

2) I also have a hard time getting rid of things I don't need or use anymore.

3) I have low self esteem, worry and cry easily so I keep walls up the best I can.

4) I was once reasonably or very intelligent - now I feel so dumb most of the time when at work (resulting in #3 above)...

#1. Joelle likes to double post and then sneak in an extra punch line, Punk! :Viking:

Let's see....

I'm generous to a fault.
I smile too much.
I exercise too much.

Oh........I am so kidding!!!!!!!

I don't exercise at all.
I am sarcastic & can be very mean to my poor son in law. :Noooo:
I always think I'm right which is very frustrating because I'm usually not. Especially now with all this cog fog. :rolleyes:
I'll add one more, I'm turning into that crazy woman that talks to anyone & everyone! :yikes:

Kinch (Michelle),

Can I tell yu that before I read the second half of your post, I said to myself, "I hate her." LOL

Okay, of course they may not be original, but they're mine:

1) I'm quite he packrat.
2) I LOVE to swear!
3) My idea of exercise is shopping. :party dollar:

1. I am jealous when I see people running, then later feel guilty for not being thankful I can still walk.
2. I fake patience at work with people who are not giving there best effort.

Sorry.....I just couldn't help myself! I feel the same way. :laugh:

Ania! I have no idea how I did that?!?! I meant to edit....I'm also half as smart as I was a year ago LOL

First I love this thread.

1. I definately smoke wayyyyy to much.
2. I will argue anything. Made me a good debator once upon a time, now it's just obnoxious.
3. I hate snobby people, but would talk to complete strangers at anyplace rather than stand there alone in silence.


Three more just because it feels good to get it out.

I have a severe fear of sirens. One goes off or goes by and I shake from head to toe.
I'm clostrophobic and will kick the chit out of anyone trying to put me in a mri or catscan tube without being heavily medicated.
I hate how I look now and wish I could look like I did in my 20's again. It's not the age, just the worn look that bugs me.

1. I tend to think my way is the best way and that usually I'm right (I hate people like that!!)

2. I am a big slob. I hate picking up after myself.

3. I struggle with negativity. I can take anything to it's worst possible conclusion, no matter how unlikely.

Three more:

1. I am very headstrong and thick-skinned. I don't believe I can be offended. I bet someone will try now though:). I'm ready :D:D

2. I'm pretty sure I have more compassion for animals than people.:o

3. When I was a teenager I abused every drug known to man except heroin. Maybe not every drug but quite a few.
