Danielle Macdonald Quotes

Every faculty and virtue I possess can be used as an instrument with which to worry myself.

The third person allows characters to really attack themselves. We all do this - attack ourselves - every hour of our lives.

I put enough pressure on myself already - I can sit here and work myself into an anxiety-filled breakdown without worrying what everyone else is going to think.

I criticise myself an awful lot. I do worry to the point that I don't think it's very healthy. I'm always picking my flaws. It's a terrible anxiety I have. I wish I could pretend nothing fazes me, but it does.

I'm a dramatic, depressive person.

I have no idea where my pathetic nature comes from. If I thought about it too long, it would depress me.

Everyone has their own special set of problems - in their own minds.

My feelings about myself have been terrible.

I'm a super-duper over-analyzer. You mix that with self-doubt and pressure, and that's never healthy.

I'm horribly self-critical.

I don't get along much with myself.

It doesn't matter how many people say 'well, everyone makes mistakes Ricky, you've had a great career you should be proud of yourself' but that doesn't mean much compared to what goes on between my ears.

Every so often, I'll look at myself in the mirror and go, 'You're a bad mother,' you know? Like, 'You're a bad dude, man, and you're gonna show the world who you are when the time is right.'

When people compliment me, I don't put much meaning into them, but when they say bad things, I take them too seriously. I try to fix this mentality, but it's hard.

No one can bully me better than me. I'm the first person to the party going, 'Don't worry - you don't have to cut me down, 'cause I'm already there.' I struggled with all those voices and gave them so much power, to the point where they took over my life.

I uplift people and see the good in a bad situation. The worst is I'm very critical of myself. If I do a performance, I watch it 100 times afterwards and pick it apart.

I suffer from anxiety, moments of depression. I'm in my head so much, and I'm thinking so much, I'm playing a tug-of-war within my mind.

I think most of us become self-critical as soon as we become self-conscious.
