I feel so scared vs I feel so scary

The correct phrase is "I feel so scared." The word "scared" describes the feeling of fear that the speaker is experiencing. On the other hand, "I feel so scary" would mean that the speaker is causing others to be fearful, which is probably not the intended meaning.

This phrase is incorrect in this context. 'Scary' is an adjective used to describe something that causes fear in others, not the feeling of fear in the speaker.

"I feel so scary"
