I do agree and think that you need a little work on your self confidence. I used to have a lot of issues with my self esteem and image. Even now I have my days and moments that I get depressed and moody and emotional. When I feel like this and how crappy I feel about myself I write a list of “Reasons Why I am Amazing”. I know it may sound corny and silly, but when you are finished you have in black and white actual reason of why you are such a great person.
Your partner seems to be honest and supportive of your “emotional moods”, but I’m sure it can be tiring. I know it was hard on my partner when I was going through my phase. A lot of people don’t understand and don’t stick around. Confidence is so much more valued than self-pity, if you will.
You should learn to feel good about yourself, with all your faults and good aspects. Everyone has good and bad sides to them and you shouldn’t feel ashamed about yourself. Be proud of yourself and everything that encompasses.
I think that once you embrace yourself this could help with some of your “emotional moods”. I’m a type of person that can’t really cry often and sometimes I wish I could because after I’ve had a good cry I feel a lot better.
If all else fails I recommend to everyone therapists. I think everyone should see would regardless of whether they believe one or not. Sometimes talking to someone can help and in these instances they know more about emotions and feelings than we do.
Good luck!
