I thought I was doing it to make the other person comfortable.

But also, I think it's more I was trying to make myself comfortable in the situation.

I want to feel like I fit in.

And that obviously stems from a childhood where you didn't quite necessarily feel like you...

were fitting the norm or or whatever but yeah it's it's a really interesting topic I have to say and I've done I've done an endless amount of reading about it but now it's a matter of putting those things those teachings into practice and and you know living what you what you preach yes easier said than done that's the difficult

I think it's having an awareness, even if you make, be it people pleasing or be it anything.

I think as long as you're aware of said behavior, then even if it's in the aftermath, I think it's okay.

People make mistakes and, you know, I'm going to slip up many times.

But yeah.

I'm incredibly insecure.

I just went to a screening of a film I was in and everyone immediately afterwards, the director, producers, how was it?

I was like, I hated it.

And it's my face I don't like.

I don't like me.

I have...

like a form of body dysmorphia, I think.

And I think that may have stemmed from my being a teenager and hitting puberty late and not feeling like I was good looking or too short or not strong enough.

I mean, I remember a PE class specifically where I couldn't do a pull up.

When everyone else in my year was doing pull-ups and I just felt incredibly embarrassed.

So I think it sort of stemmed from that.
