节选内容：

So this whole interaction with self and identity was a very difficult one for me growing up.

在我成长过程中，我一直很难处理自我与身份之间的相互影响。

The self that I attempted to take out into the world, was rejected over and over again. And my panic at not having a self that fit, and the confusion that came from my self being rejected, created anxiety, shame, and hopelessness, which kind of defined me for a long time.

那个我尝试着向周围的世界展示的自我，被一次又一次拒绝。因为没有一个合适的自我而带来的恐慌，以及因为被拒绝而产生的惶恐，引起了我的焦虑、羞愧，还有无望。这些在很长一段时间里都限制了我。

But in retrospect, the destruction of my self was so repetitive, that I started to see a pattern. The self changed, got affected, broken, destroyed, but another one would evolve---sometimes stronger, sometimes hateful, sometimes not wanting to be there at all. The self was not constant.

但当我回想过去，对于自我的毁灭反复出现，我开始看出一些规律。一个自我被改变，被影响，被打击破坏，但有一个新的会形成。有时更强，有时充满仇恨，有时根本不想出现。这个自我并不是恒定的。
