This might sound a bit bizarre, but I’ve been struggling lately with anxiety and perfectionism. I’m at university and I push myself very hard to get good grades. I’ve had two sessions with a therapist and it’s made me realise that I don’t really seem to have a personality outside of academia, I suppose it’s my “thing”. I want to find myself but I don’t even know where to start. I know people say to meditate but I feel like if I strip myself back like that I’m just a blank slate. My character is an agglomeration of everything I’ve ever encountered, but it’s not really “me” – just things I’ve read or watched. I suppose what I’m asking for is a book recommendation that can help me try find myself. I try to steer away from the typical self help books you see in the book store, but I’m willing to try anything! Thanks 🙂
