I was so worried that people wouldn't like me or my story.

The only thing that will make you happy is being happy with who you are, and not who people think you are.

I'm not concerned with what people think of me.

I know that there's people that have expectations of me, and I'm a people pleaser, so I want them to be happy.

I'm always happy-go-lucky, and people look at me and find it shocking that I could be depressed.

I can't control what people think of me, and I stopped really caring a long time ago.

Not being happy really is my fear.

Now I worry. If people ended up liking me, did I do the job wrong? So I decided they didn't end up liking me - they ended up being able to deal with me.

I've worked very hard at understanding myself, learning to be assertive. I'm past the point where I worry about people liking me.
