Do, or do not.

Text swiped from nephthys510: The Johari Window was invented by Joseph Luft and Harrington Ingram in the 1950s as a model for mapping personality awareness. By describing yourself from a fixed list of adjectives, then asking your friends and colleagues to describe you from the same list, a grid of overlap and difference can be built up.

Well, you ARE dependable! I can always count on you to listen to me, or to tell me that you will listen to me after you've had sleep, or etc. You're consistent with yourself, and that's a special thing.

Most people's concept of dependability isn't especially compatible with little things like depression, anxiety, agoraphobia, social anxiety... I don't consider myself irresponsible or thoughtless, but I also wouldn't say that things like "showing up for the school play" are among my strong points. :-\

Well, you have never, ever shown up for one of my school plays, so I can totally depend on you to continue to not do so.

I feel that I can depend on you to make a wise decision according to what you need at the moment. Sometimes what you decide at that moment is different than what you had decided previously (such as, I suppose, not going to a school play when you said you would), but I don't think that negates your dependability - it just means that you made a new decision. You have the right to change your mind about things based on new information, such as information regarding an oncoming panic attack. Perhaps other people's versions of dependable are different, but so far as I can see, you are good at communicating your needs and decisions, even if they change, which means that I feel I can depend on you.

The same goes for you, you know. (You know, right?)

If you say so, I guess I know now.

Sorry to bit in, but I totally read that "angoraphobia", and I was briefly wondering why a fear of animal fibers makes you undependable?

Well, I do have an aversion to animal fibers... how that makes me undependable would require some thought.
