At some point in our life, we seek validation from someone else. Sometimes we are struggling in the realm of insecurities, which is typical for other people nowadays. The emotions that run deeply inside of us can defeat the confidence we have in ourselves.
Because of this, most people wish to be someone else. They are hoping to have a different name, personality, and life. It has been the worst feeling that an individual can feel, and it is never that easy.
One night, I thought of saving drafts of titles for my following articles. I ended up with a topic about most of us wishing to be someone else. This article let me emphasize my experiences towards myself and other people of how they wanted to have a different kind of lifestyle.
I know that some of you already met these kinds of people, or maybe experienced it yourself. You can continue scrolling down if you find this one interesting.
Sometimes, people tend to overthink when they are tired, sad, or exhausted. It is maybe because we feel like draining from everything. Most of the time, I am feeling it, too, and it sucks. You are lying in bed while crying, and you cannot stop yourself but think of the awful situation you have.
Then, you will wish to get lost and be in someone else’s body. If ever I experience this thing, I think I am the weakest and least motivated person in the entire universe.
One day, I got a message from one of my closest friends and said she’s sad. I called her via Facebook Messenger and asked her what her problem was. And when she started talking, I can hear her trying to stop herself from crying. She told me everything she has been going through, and I felt unfortunate for her current situation at that time.
I listened to her rants and complaints to the world when she suddenly uttered the words, “I wish I were someone else.” When I thought she is going through something that runs a deep scar on her. She will not say those words if she is not deeply hurt and sad. I could not speak at that time, but I tried to calm her down by saying that it is not her fault. The moment I heard that phrase from my friend, I realized that I am not alone with that kind of mindset.
Yes, I did utter those words too. You cannot stop yourself from telling it, especially when you think you are experiencing a different level of tiredness, pain, and sadness. I know that some of you will agree that you also wished to be another person because of the circumstances that you think are the worst ever happened to you.
To someone who is reading this and wished to be someone else too, I have a message for you. It is okay to think that way once in a while, especially when you cannot stop it. You can say It so many times if it is what makes your load lighter. But after that, promise me that you will wipe out those tears and continue fighting.
Maybe you wish to be another person, but you do not know who wishes to be the person you are. Sometimes you think you are not doing great, but you do not know if someone gets motivated because of you.
You may be in your worst days now, but understand that each of us has our battles to fight. We have our dark hours, and all we have to do is get up and fight. Keep your head up high, and do not let those negative thoughts win.

Very thoughtful article. You're a good friend. Some people will not listen and try to solve the situation whenever someone is just venting.
As for the wishing to be someone else... maybe once or twice in my life? I don't know... I don't remember thinking like that but I'm sure it has crossed my mind at some point. Hmmm. 🤔 Yeah I think I have. Sometimes when we're tired of ourselves we think about acting a different way than we used to just to see if it will change our life.
I went to a few acting classes some years ago and found out I could never be another person. If I do, the fictional person will eventually be a part of me one way or another. This is why being a character actor can be a difficult profession.
