to ask you, how has your personality changed compared to pre covid?

[BobbiPinsOn]

just curious...

Yup, I feel on the edge of losing my temper most of time and feel really negative. It's not great...

More relaxed and appreciate family and friends....also refusing to over work ..it's not important

I'm generally no fun any more

I don't think I've changed at all, other than that I've never suffered fools gladly, and there seem to be far more of them about these days.

I don't think I've changed at all really.

It hasn't!

I feel a lot more ground down and cynical.

I feel very distrustful of people for various reasons. Much less sociable and outgoing. Much more aware of my own mortality (and constantly worrying it). Although on the other hand I think I'm generally more positive and I don't worry about minor issues.

I reverted back to the teenage me, pretty withdrawn and introverted. Unless it's just with one friend I can't socialise with any kind of group. Went to a 50th Saturday and literally didn't cope at all, felt awful leaving after an hour because they were nice people but felt so overwhelmed. I can deal with a gig/theatre/restaurant, something where there's a focus, but where the emphasis is on talking I go to pieces.

Far more relaxed - the result of working from home without the madness and stress of commuting 5 days a week and driving to endless meetings when I’m at work. I’ve also realised I’m quite a stoical person - the dramas and histrionics from some people about not being able to go to the pub or having to adhere by the rules and wear a mask has been quite fascinating.

More cautious. Less motivated. Less trusting.

Less materialistic

I was going down a road of endless beauty products and luxury items. I don't give a stuff for any of that now.

I’m introverted anyway and like that it seems more socially acceptable now.

Not at all.

Even more cynical, angrier and despairing at humanity. And happier alone. Quite sad, really.

I am much more distrustful of authority. I keep thinking there is going to be another lockdown.

I feel less confident and feel I have to push myself to do things socially.

Less confident, fun, and a lot less sociable.

However, I do actually also enjoy more time at home and less time rushing round socialising. It is strange! I'd like to be a bit more fun but that is probably a mix of the pandemic and having a baby too

No changes at all. Never occurred to me that it would change anyone's personally.

Mine hasn't at all.

YANBU to ask

I don't think mine has changed. My weight, OTOH...

No change

Bit more relaxed and at ease at home, a bit more paranoid and watchful out and about. There seems to be a lot more angry people out there than pre covid, people seem less able to brush off small problems.

Definitely feel a loss of confidence and social skills, I've forgotten how to small talk.

My anxiety has got loads better. I think I got a sense of perspective and it’s helped me not to get so worked up about small issues and enjoy each day as it comes.

I’m much less bothered about what people think.

My dress sense has totally changed. I dress for comfort and I don’t care what anyone thinks (see above).

I’m a bit more miserable. I’m also not as good at being a mum and I feel more selfish.

I need a bit of a break!
