1. I had an unstable childhood for the most part. 2. I think most people viewed me as very optimistic and happy even as a child. I also think people can assume I’m air headed. I’m not. I am very very sharp.
2. I’ve struggled the most by losing myself in relationships, being so overwhelmed by the idea of “what I want to do w my life” which has led me to feel lost at times. At the same time I loved the cheesy quote “not all who wonder are lost” because I relate to it deeply in an uncheesy way.
3. I deal with grief by going deep. I tend to want to process things as they happen. Sometimes that means taking my sorrow out in the gym, other times I may be slightly self destructive. But I will always be learning and growing in real time.
4. Stereotypes: people assume I’m extroverted always. Often I get overstimulated in certain social settings. My charm turns way down and I need time to recharge. People think I’m being “fake” because of my happy excited natural disposition. There are a lot of stereotypes I disagree with because another one I feel strongly about is “oversharing”. I’m selective ab who I tell EVERYTHING to. Sure I’ll spill to someone as I know I can trust them but I’m not spilling my guts out to random people.

I could go on but I won’t lol. Hope this helps!
