There have been many instances in the past where I managed to ruin my own party. I had a tendency to blame everyone around me rather than understand that I was the one causing issues. I am incredibly sensitive to mood changes and shifts in my environment, sometimes too sensitive. In those moments I tend to push too hard, or get too anxious that I end up sabotaging my own chance to relax and be happy.
