I can’t look at myself in the mirror.
The only mirrors in my house are neck up. When I go to the bathroom at work, I do everything possible avoid glancing at the floor-to-ceiling mirrors. I might catch a glimpse of my feet and then slowly work my way up, but about halfway up, I lose my nerve. No matter w hat, I studiously avoid eye contact with myself.
Today I was in the gym (a rare occurence as of late) and the trainer instructed me to look in the mirror when doing squats. I just couldn’t. I moved my head to make it look like I was looking in the mirror, all the while averting my gaze.
It’s strange. I think I have had a slight aversion to myself for years.
