What do you love about yourself?

my stutter because it's something not many people have, and it's also shaped who i am today.

I have a bit of a stutter- not the type you probably have, but I like to think of it as my brain going too fast for my mouth. Sometimes I'll lose words in a sentence (like if I was trying to say 'I have two parakeets and a s**t ton of plants' I might end up saying 'I have two and a s**t ton of plants') I have a really hard time actually finishing a sentence even when I have it planned out in my head (think way too many filler words and pauses) and very often I just can't say a word and I know it and can think it it's not like a brain fart but I just can't connect my brain to my voice. This would be fine but I talk a lot (as demonstrates lol) so it affects me a ton and I'm pretty sure that's why very few people seem to enjoy talking to me

I like my eyes, but my favorite thing about myself is my sense of humor. It only took a few decades of trauma learn and hone my craft.

My confidence easy. I love it because it's what makes me love myself and I've spent a year building it up. For those looking for confidence, you know the b******t 'think positive thoughts about yourself?' Ignore that. I mean it probably does work but what I do is just act like I think I'm the best. Make jokes about how cool or awesome you are, sct like you can't get enough of yourself. Fake it till you make it is real. I assume that part of it is retraining your brain- you say 'I'm awesome and everyone around me loves me' even as a joke and your brain hears that and over time starts to agree with that because hell yeah you are awesome and everyone around you goddamn loves you.
