depressive realism hypothesis

[glitch]

when you are suffering from depression you assess your own qualities more accurately. your physical attractiveness or competence in particular activities for example.

so if you’re depressed and you think you’re ugly and worthless, you are, and if you think you don’t have enough power to fix it, you’re right.

Sort of like a reversed Mathew effect

It's very hard to objectively rate yourself. For example, I believed that I was gigatruecel and accepted it but there were several occasions which could contradict this claim like I can remember a woman that asked to fuck her, probably she was drunk and it didn't count but it affected my ego severely or random girl kissed me at cheek at school even though it was some sort of challenge or prank but still and there are many other examples, You think that these examples would make feel better about myself but my brain use them to boost my ego and overestimate my attractiveness when in actual reality girls don't like

And I also hate myself how that much faggot I was, instead of actually fucking this woman when I got a chance I just bragged about it to my friends (or people whom I considered them as friends)
Most of them didn't believe me
