"Would you say that you are confident or do you struggle with meeting new people etc" No I'm not that confident at all, it's one of my biggest failings in life. I'm much better than I used to be though. | |||

"I've struggled with confidence issues all my life and I don't think it will ever change. A mixture of self esteem issues, trauma and vicious people have shaped who I am and it's hard to shake off. What I am working on is being kinder to myself, that's the best I can hope for right now." Yes be kind to yourself I learned to do that,I was always confident growing up ,but when I hit my late 30s I was diagnosed with an underactive thyroid and my weight has doubled since then,my hubby of 25 years even left me because he said he just didn't fancy me anymore,that hit me hard and I struggled,but now I'm at an age where I have accepted who I am ect,I'm the same person I've always been,just a hell of alot more of me | |||

"Im fairly Confident, Sure if you survived primary and secondary school in the 80/90s as a ginger in Ireland and came out the other side stronger for it, safe to say your are confident.

"Masking is the key The fab version of me is alot different to the real me, when we go to a club or meet I just play at being a confident woman and most of the time it works, other times i've crumbled over the pressure.

"Yes I'm confident, not much fazes me and I generally enjoy meeting new people, happy to stand up and do presentations etc. I have been told that I seem aloof or even shy sometimes, but that's generally because I'm either sussing people out or bored. " thats funny | |||

"Would you say that you are confident or do you struggle with meeting new people etc" I’m confident in work and socially I quite enjoy meeting new people. Big groups who all know each other and I’m the newbie are more difficult, perhaps because I find it uncomfortable to interrupt. Picking off one or two is an easier way to work my way in. It’s definitely a skill you can learn and improve and I love learning new things. | |||
