One of those Navy types, just floating around really. Not great at using this app or doing my job hooyah. What's sweet? BIG SUGAR!Follow my organized and tagged sideblog if you want at https://www.tumblr.com/confused--robots--cd--library
Confidence is the hardest shit to come by and it’s even worse when that’s the only thing people actually want to see from you. And on needing positive reinforcement, it only works if you believe it; at this point is assuming everything nice said to me is a lie meant to make me feel better about being worthless.
I feel like I'm never going to build real confidence. I'm always needing headpats from NCOs and officers or else I feel like I can't tell if I did a good job or not. It sucks. 20% of my brain is just a copy of my bitch dad criticizing and punishing me constantly no matter what.
NCO early in my career told me his goal was for me to be a confident airman. I'm a neurotic freak airman who doesn't make my bed and randomly walks up to ask TSgts to go "IS....... IS EVERYTHING OKAY!?!?!?!?!?" with huge eyes and shallow breaths for no reason every time I sit idle in uniform for more than 5 minutes. I don't know what it will take to make me feel like I deserve trust or respect. Every time someone mentions going in for an emergency after hours I feel like shit that I wasn't there. I wish I was permanent standby and that I didn't have weekends or lunch breaks.
L + unqualified + officer training at 0500 + department level critique + “low standards and bad at [my] job”
Our newest Lt (been here about 6 months now) being a 24 year old who I find extremely cute platonically and constantly experience urges to mess with is such a problem
Honestly I hear the shit that has happened/my dudes have been made to do and I really just wish I had enlisted instead… man let me fucking operate…
