Symptoms of Inferiority Complex

Is there anything more upsetting than other people talking about you? YOU MIGHT FEEL OVERLY SENSITIVE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE’S OPINIONS OF YOU, TO THE POINT THAT IT AFFECTS YOUR EVERY ACTION.

YOU CAN’T TAKE ANY SORT OF CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM WELL. But healthy criticism is good for everyone. We all need to hear certain things that can help us become better people. However, you just can’t stand people telling you you’re wrong.

In fact, you go out of your way so you can get flattered. Being told that you’re great gives you an unbelievable high. YOU RELY ON THESE WORDS OF PRAISE SO MUCH, THAT WHEN YOU DON’T GET THEM, YOU FEEL UNWORTHY.

YOU FEAR PEOPLE’S OPINIONS OF YOU SO MUCH, THAT YOU DON’T EVEN WANT TO SOCIALIZE ENTIRELY. You’d rather be on your own rather than risk feeling inferior to others.

THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST TELLTALE SIGNS OF INFERIORITY COMPLEX. YOU JUST CAN’T HELP BUT KEEP COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHERS. You always think you’re not as successful, or not as physically attractive, or not as popular.

To you, nothing is ever good enough. BEING A PERFECTIONIST CAN ACTUALLY BE GREAT. IT MEANS YOU ALWAYS DO THE BEST YOU CAN. BUT YOU TAKE IT TO A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL.

It’s normal to question your self-worth when you leave in an age where gratification is the meaning of happiness.

EVERYONE SHOULD SEE YOU AS NOTHING LESS THAN PERFECT. You go out of your way just so the world can see you in the best light possible.
