"I'm a hazard to myself" ... never understood this song when I was little and now it's hitting me like a ton of bricks.

This was a turning point for Pink. She began singing the music she was meant to sing and not what the label was forcing her to sing. Love this

Used to and still cry singing along to this song. I was a teenager then but I'm nearly 40 now. Society hasn't changed. It's still cruel.

If you witnessed that stage of Pink's career then, congratulations. That was the very best part which you experienced.

I was bullied really bad in middle school and high school… my mom bought me this CD, because she knew I really liked Pink, and thought it would be a good listen for me. She was right. That year, Pink played at the Rose Garden on my 12th birthday, and my mom got me front row tickets. My mom got her attention and told her it was my birthday, and she sung “happy birthday” to me. I’ll never forget that moment. I was so truly happy that my favorite artist actually did that for me. It made me a pink fan for life. Oh, and I got awesome bragging rights!! Thank you Pink! I love you and your music.

When I was a teenager, I felt like P!nk was one of the few people who understood

I slept on pretty much all of Pink’s music growing up but hearing her music at age 29 its hitting me so hard how much we need more music like THIS in todays world. We really took these songs for granted man.

Who's here in 2024?

Pink's been screaming "be yourself and be different" since day one and way before it was even cool

This song actually helped me get through many many many years of bullying.

Sending a lots of love to all of you that has been scapegoated by family members, bullied at school, work, by toxic intimate partners! That happened because we all are good souls! We are survivors and the world is nothing without the good hearted people like us!❣️❣️🙏🤗

90's kids who's here?

First time I heard this song I cried so hard. After years of torment, someone finally sang how I felt. This song is so underrated for the lyrical and meaningful value it has.

Can we just appreciate P!nk's bravery in the early 2000s for a moment.

20 years later and this masterpiece still slaps

I cannot even begin to write a "thank you" to P!nk for this song that would pay for back for how many times this song helped to save this life of mine a long time ago. But I also cannot even begin to write a "I'm sorry" for the hurt she had to feel to make this song ❤

I don't think Pink understands how many people she helped with this song til today I sing this song with soo much strength

This song is criminally underrated. I think MOST high school students, and a good majority of adults, can identify with the lyrics. Well done, Miss Moore!

June 2024 ❤️❤️ pink legend

2023 and this is still fire . Here’s to an artist that never changes and remains a rockstar for eternity 🍻 p!nk is one hell of a woman!

The amount of meaning this song has is so underrated

She never sold out to the system she is her own person and does it her way, that's what I admire about her.

90s really the decade for great songs. Pink is one of those artists who stayed true to herself and one of the few who has powerful vocals.

14 years later, this song still makes me tear up. Pink lyrics have always had a special place in my heart.

I’m a 41 year old man with Borderline Personality Disorder. Weirdly, this song is therapeutic. EDIT: loving the comments to this. I didn’t think I’d even get one. Keep fighting and keep searching out YOUR peace. Much love xx

"Every day I fight a war against the mirror" "I'm my worst enemy" So fucking true!

Rewatching a clip from 13 years ago, I understand that it is better than 80% of modern clips. It’s the same with music, listening to old rock songs of this type. I understand that they are better than most modern tracks :D

Had to revisit this song, at a turning point in my life. Always get me to snap out of it and move on. Such a motivational song

I think so many of us can relate to this song so much... everyone around us always seems successful and happy, with great jobs, relatioships, social life, etc., always sharing pictures of themselves on vacation or otherwise having fun on Facebook, and it feels like we're the only ones miserable. It's probably in large part an illusion, and the people who show off and try to give the impression that they have a great life are just as miserable deep down, but it's hard to convince yourself of that...

Man I remember crying to these lyrics when I was real depressed. It’s nice knowing we’re not alone in some of the hardships we experience

Her music its a reflexion of what most of the people felt back then. And even now. She was, is and will continue being THAT BEETCH!

My 12 year old self felt so seen by this song when it came out in 2001. It was one of my favorites because I hated who and how I was for the longest time and really struggled with things everyone else seemed to be able to do well into adulthood. And now 20 years later I was diagnosed with ADHD and Autism. Everything makes so much sense now and I'm much happier and compassionate with myself now that I know I'm just wired differently and have fully embraced that.

13 years later, she's still herself. She's still making real music. And That my people is raw talent.

her songs are the realest as it gets

When she has a fight with herself in the mirror ❤ hell I get it.

Still listening to this gem in 2024

So glad that she never changed who she was to please the labels!!! I remember this era and the pop scene.

P!nk, Avril Lavigne, Christina Aguilera, Michelle Branch, Britney Spears, Nelly Furtado & Natasha Bedingfield are my female favorites from the 2000s era. It can’t get no better than them.

still relevant song 2024!! everybody was an actor,portraying ''perfect'' as mental health finally is high on the list of things. still. thanks to singers as pink and many more to have actually played major role in reflecting on such already back in the day the song came out.people had only slept upon it very much

Finally found a song that would explain how i felt everytime they judge, look down at me and compared me just because I'm being me, this song is probably a big slap,

My honest opinion about Pink is that aside from her obvious talent, she's managed to be relevant with new hits in 4 different decades. Not many artists can do that. She deserves recognition for that, no matter what your music preference is.

This shit hits so much harder as an adult.

I love you Pink....Family, Drugs, Abuse...everthing....you understand and are a helping ONE!

Having started self harming age 12 when this came out about 3 years later it was like Pink was expressing everything i wanted to say but couldn't articulate back then. It still rings true at times 20 years on ❤

As a 2000s kid, this song brings back so many childhood vibes

the song that changed her career and she was allowed to sing what she wanted and be herself

P!nk thank you for keeping so many of us alive and getting us through hard times for so many years ❤❤

I cry every time I hear this song! 😢 I was a sad teenager man! This song helped/ helps me still till this day! Pink is an amazing artist 😍❤. We didn't have all this technology in the 90s-2000s, being picked on, not feeling good enough to be accepted by your peers is really hard as a kid. Her whole CD helped me out so much! I didn't feel like the "only one."

Backstage she's carrying a blade as she says she's her own worst enemy and just before she gets onstage she stabs it onto the stage door. Deep shit actually. I think its in reference to how she was able to let go of that adolescent pain and embrace who she really is and connect with a crowd of people at last, and she sees herself in them and they see themself in her. Beautiful

I think most people didn't realize was how much Pink could carry a real note! It seemed like everyone (most people, not all) were too blinded by Britneys looks/popularity, and Christinas voice. Pink could sing too!

“So doctor doctor won’t you please prescribe something A day in the life of someone else Cause I’m a hazard to my self” That’s deep

Bless her, saying that being unique is beautiful. Amen Stop the bullying. We all wanted to be somebody else, but we are as good as the next person. This song taught me to love myself and all my imperfections. Thanks pink

Grew up with P!nk was awesome. She never tried to fit in like the others.

she's so much more beautiful than Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, etc. because she doesn't try as hard to be "pretty" she's just true to herself and it comes across very real and honest. I've been a P!nk fan since the 90s and I would love to meet her one day... she seems like she would be so down to earth

Man i listened to her music all the time when we were in high-school and didn't care what people thought ❤😂

I am 40 now, and I used to listen to this song constantly on my mp3 when I was 19. I loved the video and at that time I dis not know English,but this song had something...I could understand its meaning just watching the video. Now I understand every single world and yes, it does pictures me at that age!❤😢

The older I get the more I relate to the song.

We don't have pop music like this anymore

It's too bad she turned out the way she did 'cause growing up with this phase of P!nk was a gift.

15 years ago this song was accurate and 15 years later it’s more still more relevant than ever!!! 😓

"L.A told me "You'll be a pop star, all you have to change is everything you are""

THIS is why she won't win grammy awards. She is challenging the system, exposing the effects of Fame, everything that tears you down just to own your name in the end. She's a genius and everyone is afraid of women with power. Love her.

I appreciate Pink, i woke up this morning listening to get after 18 years years.

When MTV had music I was on my trip to the capital of my country and this song was playing on my TV n this is how I love n meet pink

I wish P!nk knew how much i looked up to her as a kid cause she would help me through my dark child and teen years to understand and love myself better💝

This is the song EVERY teenager should be made to listen to when they're going through changes and facing peer pressure and all that!

20 years after first hearing this song, I still come back to it when I'm feeling that way again.

I can't say enough how important Pink was for my generation of girls in middle and high school. Not anyone else fault, but especially being a 12 year old, with significant body and self esteem issues, and just such a low self worth, feeling like something was wrong with me because my dad wasn't always present alot in my life and my mom worked as a ingle mom in a factory with very effluent kids. Carrying that low self worth like you're not good enough, or pretty enough, or cool and having her and this song was such a positive influence and message when you wanted to cry. I never want any little girl or teen to ever feel that way

I miss the early 00s so much.

I love how all her songs are about celebrating indiviudality, being your own person and don't change just because someone wants you to. We need more music with lyrics like this!

I literally use to cry whilst singing this song 😢

Being a 30 year old woman, who had a rough early years from age 6 to 14 due to being bullied for a speech disorder, Pink was always there to help with self acceptance.

Early 2000’s and late 90’s are the heart and soul of music

Back when songs had real life meaning and a deep connection. Music cannot match that energy no more.

In my opinion, still the best song Pink has produced. She has others which are OK, but this one does it for me.

How could someone like her see the future 20 years advance. The world wasn't ready for her coming. And labeled her so many names. Then we 20 laters the worlds finally realize that she was greatest of her time.

Anybody else having a pink marathon

I'm schizophrenic, bipolar, OCD, and have severe anxiety. I can really feel the chorus. It cuts so deep. "Don't want to be my friend no more, I want to be somebody else."

I've eased up on myself, but this song is always a reminder "take it easy on yourself" like Pink states, I'm my biggest hater and biggest supporter. It took me years to say hey "good job" to myself.

It's a song about not trying to be something else that people want you to be or expect you to be.

Holy shit! I remember listening to this when I was like TWELVE! This brings back some of my best memories...

Can we appreciate how pink can wear anything and still look great

Remember seeing this video at best buy on a 720 pixel 24 in flat screen tube TV. The flat screens were just coming of age. Tube tvs were still everywhere.

I'm a guy and had this album from day one. I related to 95% of this song.

That line "she's so pretty, that just ain't me" is just not true. Pink has always been beautiful and pretty too.

This song just summarizes my whole teenage years; it just hits really, really HARD.

When I was a teenager I desperately wanted to be somebody else, but then I realised that if I was someone else I'd just be exchanging my problems with theirs. So I decided to just be myself as hard as possible and screw what anyone else thought, and it's worked out pretty well so far.

"L.A. told me you'll be a popstar" I just realized that she's referring to L.A. Reid (top music producer) and not the actual city 🤯

I’m my own worst enemy It’s bad when you annoy yourself 😞💔

Crazy how underated this is

This is the song of your that i heard first time ....then on an on iam now 35yrs love from India

Grew up with P!nk was awesome. She never tried to fit in like the others. It's totally me 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️🤩 Be yourself,be different,be what you want 💪🏻

Embrace yourself and ignore folks compare you to others

the knife Steven Tyler gifted her. i can still recall from childhood memory.

As I’ve gotten older I’ve realized my mom was in so much pain from the music she’d play and dance to around the house

early 2000 isn't complete without Pink

Everyone has felt this at one point or another. This song has helped me, personally, a lot and I'm glad it was made.

I can't believe that I identified myself with this song when I was 16, and now at 40 I still do. 😏

She was only 22 here❤

This song changed me...I mean....made me love maself...I used to hate ma own self... ma own face... coz of those puberty pimples.. ..thought I was sooooo ugly....gosh.... those days in high school....was such an enemy of ma ownself... sooo irritating... I got NONE of ma pictures when young NO memories of me........ really sad, so sad... sooo irritating...I wanted to be somebody else..........Thanks God, thanks Pink for letting me know maself.....I`m fearfully & wonderfully made......
