Wow, great responses!
And many things I haven't even thought about.

Being kind of unable to realize I need more "I *am*" (although as I say English is not my first language, I'm trying not to get lost in translation here) says a lot about me, doesn't it?

I hate holidays, because after a couple weeks without having specific stuff to do (I don't have a job) I start to feel empty, and by the end of them I'm usually starting to feel kind of suicidal. Yup, I guess I do define myself by what I do and have.

(LOL sorry for the wall of introspective, boring text)

Your English is pretty good. I'd say it's hyperbolic to say it's better than a native speaker, but unfortunately a sizable portion of native speakers give out nothing but word salad.

Your English is very good actually! Especially to be able to express yourself and understand others with such vague confusing topics such as sense of self!

Thanks! :D

I'm cheating a bit because I have spell check on my browser, but well, it's nice to be able to write things outside the class "compositions".

And I'm taking an English exam this December that I expect to pass and hope to do so with a good grade, so practice is great! (Cambridge Proficiency, if you are curious)

I think it depends how you look at it. So, to use your example from your main post, instead of saying "I am a good student who gets good marks", and then damaging your sense of self when you fail, you could say "I currently get good marks because I work hard, I'm pretty smart, and I study stuff outside school so I'd already covered some of this work for fun. I like learning things, and I think it's important."

Of course, if you just said "I am British/American/Japanese", that's also unlikely to lead to damage to your sense of self, because it's unlikely to change.

I don't know: when I was doing Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, I was told that my self-image rules at the time were kind of harmful, in that they put too much pressure on me and made failing catastrophic. One of them was almost equivalent to "I get good grades" (a little more complicated).
