It counts for a lot. According to a recent study, to be loved by someone else multiplies one's awesomeness 143-fold.But you are loved aren't you? That has to count for something.
I have a hard enough time getting people to give me the time of day, I'm not quite at awesome
That's me too. But then I remind myself that bipolar disorder is associated with high intelligence and abundant creativity, and, even as I'm fighting not to step in front of the train, I remember how awesome I am in my misery.Honest question about how you see yourself. Do you wake up in the morning and think, "wow, I am awesome. What a privilege it is for people to know me," then proceed to whistle your way to work?
Yeah but then the depressive side of the manic-depressive disorder kicks in and they have to coax me out from under the bus seat.![]()
So yes, I am awesome, and here are the reasons why:
-I am very good at my job.
-I have excellent fashion sense.
-I'm super-duper smart.
-I am a very talented artist.
-I have a great sense of humor.
-I look good in any and all hats.
-I can enjoy almost any situation just a little bit, if only for the sake of novelty, e.g. getting an arterial blood-draw in the ICU (as opposed to blood drawn from the vein) is incredibly painful, but it left a killer bruise from the palm of my hand to my elbow! It was a thing of beauty!
-I have gorgeous hair.
-I have awesome tattoos.
-I'm pretty hot.
-I'm well-read.
-I get physics jokes.
-I play the cello.
-I bake really good cookies.
-I can bike 25 miles and not get tired.
-I can recognize any episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation after watching only a few seconds.
-I had a really rough childhood, which I know does not make me inherently awesomer than people who had it easy, but since I came through it all awesomely, it makes me awesome.
-I can put my feet behind my head in yoga class.
-I know all the words to all the songs by David Bowie and all the songs from The Sound of Music.
-I stayed up for 7 days straight once -- granted I was manic, but it was pretty awesome.
-I am American and can name all the actors who played The Doctor in order, and could do so before NuWho.
-I drew an awesome picture of Carl Sagan.
Awesome.

Absolutely. All I have to do is lean forward about ten inches and my feet are technically behind my head.You can put your feet behind your head too? Awesome!Since "Groovy" was not an option, I chose "Awesome."
For eight of the same reasons as tsq. I'll let you figure out which.![]()

But you are loved aren't you? That has to count for something.
Dude what took you so long, over half the other men on the board are already thereand i'm in love....
I'm with Holdy on this. Until lunchtime I'm cranky and doleful. Then in the afternoon I get geometrically more awesome and by the time I hit dinner, BAM! I'm da bomb.Honest question about how you see yourself. Do you wake up in the morning and think, "wow, I am awesome. What a privilege it is for people to know me," then proceed to whistle your way to work?
In the morning? No; I hate getting up in the morning!
By the evening? Yep, I'm totally awesome!![]()
