@justava_booktok: Lately I have been really annoyed by society’s need to find an identity for yourself. I feel like especially on TikTok you see how everyone is trying to find out who exactly they are, what their beliefs are… You can see how different “aesthetics” are trending, how words like “whimsical” become a lifestyle and everybody just wants to “romanticise” their life and I did several videos on this phenomenon of just wanting to fit in somewhere (look at hogwarts house tests, Percy Jackson cabins, mbti…) because this topic fascinates me a lot. For me personally, I have always been searching for an exact identity for myself to present to the outer world, my exact thoughts on different things, my exact clothing style, exact personality… and it took (and still takes) me so so long to just accept that maybe me and everybody else are way more complex than just that. This belief is something that gives me so so much comfort, not having to be a certain type of person to “fit in” somewhere. I feel like many many people (including myself) are currently hiding behind made up identities, afraid of being seen truly. That’s why I did some research on what an “identity” actually is and found a really good essay (idk how exactly to call it) by the clinical psychologist Revel Miller, who introduced this concept of this life wheel and the seven aspects of who you are which I used in this video. So if you want to dig deeper into that feel free to search it up! Maybe this video reaches someone who’s also sharing my thoughts on this topic or has completely different beliefs, any way I’m always open to discuss! But actually with this video I wanna express that you do not have to limit your identity to a test you find online about if you are type a, b or c. (and don’t get me wrong, I love love love such tests and do them all the time, but lately I’ve personally felt exhausted by seeing people putting themselves into categories on social media and feeling pressured myself to find an exact category that fits me and captures every part of myself completely, which is frustrating because there is none. There’ll never be one. Sooo, anyway, I’ve yapped enough, share your thoughts in the comments if you want to and thanks if you read all this!) #identity #personality #whoami #selfdiscovery #illbelieveinanything —> identity, video, personality, limiting, safe space, discussion, opinion, self awareness, reflection, expression, discovery, who am I, who are you, I’ll belive in anything by wolf parade, phenomenon, aesthetics, fitting in, society, culture, aspects of identity, edit<—

to me, there is no such thing as truly "faking", nor is there any truth to my "self". it's a difficult thing for me to explain, but I like to think of it as there being no way to lie to myself about my identity because every single action I take, every single thought that I have, is ultimately part of me. there is no truth to myself because I am always changing, I am always switching my mood, my likes and dislikes, my thoughts and actions, and even that change is me, it is all part of my identity. Even when I supposedly fake, when I put on a facade in front of other people, I am only showing them another part of myself. I am no less myself than I normally am, there is no such thing as that in my world, I will always be the truest of me. That is one thing that never changes, because as long as my self remains within me, I am me and there is no changing that. I don't need a specific spot in this world either, though I like to know. Those boxes that I like to put myself are just parts of me that show themselves a little more when I'm aware of them, or maybe they try to hide themselves instead, but ultimately, I will always be myself no matter how much I try to force my identity into boxes. it's like trying to force gas into a loose box with large gaps. I can't force myself into anything in the end, and I will always be me! still, I do dream of a different self. a person who is smarter, more admirable, more likeable and outgoing, more interesting. but that person, somewhere deep down, is me too isn't it? My dreams and fantasies, my personas and facades, my mind and thoughts, my beliefs and interests, and my likes and dislikes all amount into my very own, ever-changing version of me that knows no bounds in a world that too is ever changing with no clear truth or lie!

This made me realise how much I yearn to find my crowd by figuring out my identity. It’s so weird thinking about how I examine myself like some kind of open book when all the pages haven’t been written yet.

idk if this is cringey but ive always struggled with an identity or more specifically a personality, ive always felt like I'm annoying and too childish and too loud so when I was younger i would basically try steal the personalities of characters i admired and ive gone through phases of accepting that i have my own personality and times of when i just wanted to be considered cool enough and now i have no idea who i am. although i know that humans are unpredictable i still just want a structure of how to act and for my identity because i know what i am right now isnt enough

I want so badly to just exist as "me" without putting myself into a box but it's hard since being "me" makes me so lonely

notice how only humans decided to put themselves under titles or inside boxes? a human is a creature in the world, a subjective part of it. humans shouldn't have to categorize themselves; but just be present, live, do, eat, breath and react to the moving and living world

I was obsessed with personality tests, MBTI things, etc. Until I was late diagnosed with ADHD because I realized I was just desperately trying to fit somewhere, to put words on what I am and understand my own identity since I never felt like fitting in

I was told to write an autobiography on my self lately and I wrote down “I can’t fit my personality into one or million words” because I really can’t tell you who exactly I am or what personality I have. i match my personality to my environment like a chameleon and I find it unique,this video made me understand that im not alone🫶🏾❤️

For some reason, this made me feel heard. My whole short life I've been taking tests to find out who I really am, but I'll never truly know. It's such a strange feeling. Who am I?

Bruh :
No se si haya gente por acá que hable español pero estoy tan harta de pensar en quien soy y que quiero ser. Siento que no tengo personalidad. Muchas veces estoy en una situación con gente que no es parecida a mí y me doy cuenta que me adapto a las personas como si yo fuera muchas personas en una, odio eso. Últimamente me siento mucho mejor conmigo misma, después de tanto tiempo logré quererme y sentir que la paso mejor conmigo misma. No es soledad, es el comienzo de la auto aceptación. Si alguien está leyendo esto, eres único, tú tienes la oportunidad de ser quien eres y no fingir, no se repriman. Todos necesitamos sunshine
