I love how he starts the accent whenever he’s talking about puffed up Chad mode

[kewoshk]

Being myself was the best decision I have made.

Don't improve yourself for other people. Improve yourself for YOU!

[jole]

We hate people with faults and vulnerabilities but then, we hate when people don't accept us for our faults and vulnerabilities...vicious circle...everyone is trying to connect with each other with their false without flaw version instead of trying to connect with the real broken version

[Nerdy-By-Nature]

We abandon ourselves when we are inauthentic, so the sense of loneliness is incredibly deep. You don't even have your own back.

[mariabacila]

Nope! Never tried being anyone else but me, and I'm happy with or without people, because I love myself 🥰

[hannanah]

really blows me away.

I used to try and do this in highschool, but being inauthentic felt so much worse than being lonely.

I was much happier with my one friend who liked me for me, than I was pretending to be someone else with 20 friends.

So happy I learned that early on.

The "fake it til you make it" slogan really did a number on our true selves and the ability to accept and love ourselves. It's exhausting trying to be something everyone else will love and adore, which is why I only accept respect and understanding as true connection.

As Jay Shetty mentioned once: ‘We live in the perception of what we think, what others think about us.’

“He likes me, I’m likable!” Bro Dr. K NAILS the mania in the brain the first couple times you get validated in your new presentation of self

[CloudSociety]

I grew up being told to “just be yourself” im glad I took that route. Watched a lot of people become people they weren’t hanging out with people they had nothing in common with while I had real connections and always felt at home with my friends. Now I’m comfortable with being by myself and I notice A LOT of people are with someone just so they aren’t alone, and it creates a lot of bad things from just that one action alone. Whereas I’m happy alone after work just hanging out with my dog watching movies and sewing and drawing lol

An American rapper I like called Noname once said:

"People say they love you but they really love potential
Not the person that's in front of them, the person you'll grow into"

And I felt that.

[ScheffCity]

Dr. K doing an absolutely manipulative thing with the accent because he knew it'd be humorous, in order to make his point, was literally genius

[bonnie]

I'm always myself. That way I know where other people stand right away. No delayed disappointment.

[anmolyadav]

Loneliness isn't the physical absence of other people. It's the sense that you're not sharing anything that matters with anyone else. If you have lots of people around you - perhaps even a husband or wife, or a family, or a busy workplace but you don't share anything that matters with them, then you'll still be lonely.

- Johann Hari

[lydiacatherine]

Being healthy and authentic makes enemies too, it's just I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved for who I'm not

[chelychel]

This is so true! And we go to social media to post pics for likes. I actually remember thinking how the amount of likes on IG made me feel either confident or depressed. Had to get off to re-center

[briibrii]

But first you gotta know who you are. If you started people pleasing or being a chameleon from a young age. It's hard to know who YOU truly are.

[suhasprabhu]

I have been broken human all my 26years only after following Dr K advice I'm feeling better and myself. Thankyou ❤.

[cobalt]

Whenever Dr K does the accent, it cracks me up 🤣
