Signs you've been having an identity crisis without even realising

An identity crisis can be devastating to the psyche, sometimes it can be so damaging to the mind that you completely miss subtle manifestations of it...

1) You spiral easily when faced with criticism

Rather than trusting your own self-evaluation, you allow others to tell you who you are.

Any small comment or correction (regardless of intention) can send you spiralling and questionning your entire perception of yourself.

2) Your opinions change based on those around you

When you don't know what you value or agree with, you will become a proponent of anything presented to you with enough confidence.

Consistently lacking an opinion doesn't make you agreeable or open-minded. It makes you an unknown quantity to others, but most of all to yourself.

And if you don't even know what your values are, you won't know where you're headed in life.

3) Your morals fall to the level of those around you

By the same token, being clear about what you consider right and wrong is probably one of the strongest part of one's identity.

So when you your moral standards descend to those you are around, it shows a complete lack of understanding of self.

Our emotions often guide our morals, so to be unclear about what you believe is right and wrong is a sign that you have lost touch touch with that fundamental aspect of yourself.
