I know you parents are going to fight me on this one, but, to me, it means that I’m not good with kids. 
It is not that you don’t know yourself, it is that what you know is warped such that you don’t know perhaps what is going on around you.
What you perceive alters how you act and if you don’t know what is going on then you don’t seem your true original self, as one acts strangely to others and to how you would be without sz.
