REFLECTIVE ESSAY

DIRECTIONS: Write a reflective essay and state when you are in your false self and for what
reason. Elaborate the scenarios in your life truthfully.

When it comes to my life, I’m a little bit confused whether I have a purpose or not. I am
enjoying my self each and every single day but at the end it doesn’t feel right anymore. It’s like
I’m slowly losing myself.

As I continue with my life every day I kind of feel that I’m not myself anymore like I’m
depressed and having anxiety. At first, I was just ignoring it but as days past it’s getting worse
and worse which is not good for me and my health. The only solution that I can think of at that
time was to pretend that I’m happy all the time, that I don’t have to worry a single thing in my life
and with my studies. You know it’s hard to pretend that everything is fine, to pretend that you
are okay with everything that is happening around you and most of all is to pretend to smile and
laugh. Knowing deep inside you is hurting and crying all the time. This was the time that I am in
my false self.
I’m maybe strong in the eyes of other people but little did they know their just only seeing
me in my false not my true self. Only those who knew me truly knows how weak I am as a
person.
