I have often in the past been criticised. Not due to any specific aspects of myself, but for who I am as a whole. They want to change me, want me to conform and be more like them.

But, here is the thing; I like who I am as a person.

As someone who had a literal phobia of people (Anthropophobia), I do amazingly well in everyday life. I go out of my way to start conversations and engage with people.

I like that my personality is more subtle.
I like that I do not drink alcohol.
I like that I do not do drugs.
I like that I have morals.
I like that I have manners.
I like that I do not demand attention.
I like that I am taken seriously.
I like that I am trusted.
I like that I am strong.
I like that I am independent.
I like that I am aware.
I like that I am honest.
I like that I have walls.

I like who I am as a person.
