How do I handle being lambasted and scrutinized when I finally publicize my business endeavors? Every time I start a new project it just feels like the mouth of the public (a poorly opinionated beast) opens up and tries to swallow me. A lot of their criticism is subjective as hell, so I couldn't give two shits about a lot of it. Some of it is helpful but it's tiring discerning between good advice and faggotry persuasion. The funny part is, despite the criticisms, my projects pretty much always succeed. I usually end my projects before they officially get anywhere because I immediately get scared of the publicity I start receiving. They are usually creative projects, but in some way they always have the capacity to make money. I start getting full blown panic attacks because of the amount of people shit talking me and threatening me. There's a lot of positivity given to me as well, but usually outweighed by the negativity. I am also the kind of person that doesn't necessarily want to make something everyone is going to like (at first) and I go against the grain, so it's a given that I will get haters. IDK maybe this is why people have social media managers and stuff like that... I just need a way to manage being public without it ruining my life and freaking me out. I hope that this makes sense.
>>62362152>I hope that this makes sense.It does not. Good day to you. I wish you well.
>>62362161Let me put it simply; when my projects succeed I get fans whom harass me and it gives me panic attacks. How do I cope? How do i deal with being a public figure?
>>62362177>t.pussyJust man up bro. Go look at some fat chicks in public wearing tiny clothes. Makes me feel more confident
>>62362212im not a dyke nor a degenerate
>>62362224How do either of those things correspond to what I said, other than you being extremely homosexual?Go have another panic attack at someone online telling mean things
>>62362152what's that? you're doing something amazing and are pretty much finished? Well Let Me Give You Some Really Shitty Ideas! That's What You Need! To HEAR MY SHITTY IDEAS AND IMPLEMENT THEM IN YOUR ALMOST FINISHED PROJECT SO I CAN PRETEND I DID FUCKING ANYTHING AT ALLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!
>>62362232you don't fucking get it you've obviously never had a following retarded fucking nigger
>>62362233fucking nail on the head bro. spot the fuck on
>>62362236>you don't fucking get it>retarded fucking niggerNice projection bro. Honestly, you're clearly not made for this is my lighthearted advice made you seethe this much you know-it-all sperg
>>62362250>lighthearted advice>"just man up bro">projectioncactus in your asshole. cactus in your asshole. cactus in your asshole. cactus in your asshole.
>>62362237anyway, the answer is to get someone to handle it for you. or just blow-up from time to time and handle the social fallout. or become a monk.
>>62362286You've given me a lot to think about. Thank you for the advice. I know that the monk thing was a joke, but meditation genuinely might help. That and limiting the amount of time I spend observing comments from other people. Usually, like you said, it is just a load of "I want to feel special" horse shit. I think that I really needed to hear that.
>>62362300>I think that I really needed to hear that.Pussy
>>62362152>it's so awful I have so many fans and followers I don't know what to do!nobody with that much social anxiety has any sort of following.
>>62362152I don't understand.>telling others goes wrong and makes me anxiousI have 2 crazy ideas:1. Stop telling2. If they do learn of your projects, ignore what they say, don't read it
