That I have extreme confidence in my self now that i am out of high school ..idk feel like i can finanly be myself because i dont owe anyone anything ..i never did conform to the shallowness or immaturity ..so i was jus quiet and withdrawn..but everyday i care less about how people percieve me . I believe that my new relationship has helped.

Yeah, it's really cool when you realize that you are finally your own person. Enjoy it!

 

Don't forget the people who got you there, though. It was no small feat to guide you to this place. One thing for sure, they would be so pleased to know you feel this free and happy and optimistic.

Hey, I know what you mean. For the last couple of years of high school I was, for the most part, withdrawn and didn't have many friends except for the few close ones I had mad throuhg Junior High. I felt insecure and never liked going to parties or get togethers or any of that.

But now that I'm in University it's like I'm slowly becoming myself again, which feels really weird cause I'm asking myself like "Is this normal?" I'll still judge myself ALOT about how I act and if I 'performed' right, but despite that I'm still able to act alot more like the myself I lost 2 years ago.

I guess moving on helps you to change. New situations give you a new look on the world. And, as you said, the less you feel constrained by everyone's opinions, ESPECIALLY your parents' (which I think for me is definetly becoming a big one and I'm coming to understand that), the more you feel like yourself and the less you need to 'please' everyone around you.

 

I'm glad you found your happiness, and keep it going. Never let it go, cause I'm sure it can only get better.
