do you ever feel this way? At times I can be self destructive and do dangerous things. Is this normal?

You're attractive, wealthy, and have a great personality. Does that mean other people like you a lot? Do you have real friends? Do you have all these attributes to make other people like you? Why do you dislike yourself then? What is really underneath that attractive, wealthy, and great personality fascade? If you don't like yourself underneath that shell of an exterior, then why? And what can be done about it so you can accept all the parts about yourself that you secretly dislike?
Something else to consider is that though you are blessed with all this positive stuff, are you using it to serve a higher cause? If you're only serving yourself, you will always be miserable with yourself.
I think it's probably normal to not like ourselves at times. It's part of being human. But the self-destructive and dangerous thing could mean that you need help to see what part of you is in dire need of attention and healing.
If only I had wealth to do therapy myself. That's something you can do for yourself.

I completely understand the place you're coming from. i'm an extremely superb individual, no longer egotistical, yet i'm superb. i don't experience like I definitely have any friends and it rather makes me unhappy each so often. you basically could make the 1st step with people who you understand as friends. (sp?) Invite them out to lunch, or meet for a drink or only carry out sometime. As time is going with the aid of, in case you try this with some human beings, you will improve friends. I invited somebody i did no longer understand o.k. to a stay overall performance with me reason I had an extra fee ticket. Now we are large friends. some persons are shy and can be puzzled with being caught up. solid luck to you.

Some people kind of swing back and forth regarding their view of themselves. I'm one of those people. In a relative sense, it's pretty normal.
But you also want to guage how awesome you really think you are compared to how self-destructive and dangerous those things really are. One doesn't seem to be evidenced by the other, and if you're really putting yourself at risk, you know there's really something underneath the surface that's worth exploring (perhaps with a therapist).
In fact, I'm seeing a therapist next week about a similar type of issue. I think I'm great and totally desirable, and then I think I'm pretty pathetic and insecure. It almost smells like Bipolar Disorder, although I'm pretty sure it's not quite that serious for me.

Well, I think you are trying to fulfil something you are missing. Ever think about trying to do things like volunteer with some kind of a group or organization instead of doing dangerous things. I don't think its abnormal. Everyone likes to try things and push themselves to the limit. You don't have to be wealthy for that. I really do think you are missing something in your life and you just need to figure out what that is. If you feel it is getting out of hand why don't you find a good therapist to talk to. Maybe they could help. Good luck and stop disliking yourself. You are who you are.

I'm not wealthy, so I can't speak to that. Everybody has things about themselves that they don't like, presuming they're honest with themselves. If you want to change, then seek the help you need to do so; therapists are expensive, but since you're wealthy, you shouldn't have a problem paying for one.

This might sound weird, but you probably are not happy because the things you thought you needed didnt fill the void in your soul. You need to get back in touch with yourself at a level of you having absolutly nothing. Then refill your life with just the bare minimum to sustain your life. This might be impossible if you have an ego that wont make this happen, your going to have to give all you have away, for good. This might sound extreme, but you need to humble yourself in order to see who you are. The things you find important now might not be the same if you go thru this. If you say you are rich and you have everything you want. ask youself if money bought you true happiness. I am sure it didnt, your looks might have gotten you the same easy results, but even good looks only get you so far. It can be a happy life for you if you are willing. good luck.
