This is such good read. Great job! Since choosing isolation over crowds a majority of the time, I'm now better in social settings. I don't worry about if I do a certain action what will this person think. I became more authentic by getting to know myself. My friends worry about me. Maybe they have a right to, but I don't know. I'm happier, so what could be so wrong on how I achieved it as long as I didnt hurt no one and only effected myself, than there's nothing wrong with that. Everyone be sure to set a boundary on how much time yoy spend alone so that you dont start withdrawing from society. Its a strange world out there and the best way to blend in is to mirror your enviroment.
