I have no problem being goofy/silly when I’m by myself, but I don’t feel that way around others and I feel like I’m almost sort of holding myself back. When I’m around others, I want to feel the way I feel when I’m alone. I’m unsure of how to do this, and would like advice
People tell me that I’m serious or that they think I don’t like them, and I never feel like myself around anyone, even family. My family members think they know who I am and when they describe me, it feels like they’re describing someone else, and I try to explain that I’m not like that, but they tell me I’m wrong
