Feeling different


Question Posted Sunday June 30 2013, 9:03 pm

hey, for the last couple of weeks,or since school got out for summer i just got out of counseling and ever since my last time i went everyone has been calling me weird annoying and saying that i've changed and my counselor taught me alot its just that i am being more social but lately i've been wanting to just be alone like i have barely been with any of my friends this summer and i can't help but sit and think how i've changed. I used to not be able to tell people how i truly feel but i was being bullied but now i can tell someone to fuck off and say no when i want to but others are saying i've changed...i dont feel suicidal at all and i dont cut myself and i dont get bullied as much and my counselor has taught me alot of ways to help myself but i just feel like im isolating myself from everything...any help would be lovely. thanks

Just because you've changed, it doesn't mean that it's not good. There is such things as good changes.

If these people are saying that you've changed for the worse, then they're probably not people you want to associate with.
I mean you said you're more social and can stand up for yourself, you're not suicidal or cut yourself, and that's a good thing. Just because you like to be alone, doesn't mean that it's a bad thing. You don't need to always want to hang out with your friends. I think you're completely fine and shouldn't worry about what other people think.

Find out if those who say you have changed, like the change or not. If they like the change, then they will make a good network of positive friends. If they don't like the new you and want to old one back, it is in your best interest to not associate at all with them. These people with comments, you don't mention them as friends. If they are not a friend, what they say doesn't matter anyways as they don't really know you and care about you.
Just keep doing what your counselor told you to do. Young people are cruel. Once they mature and grow up, it will be easier to make friends. Focus your time now on learning something new, gaining a new skill, doing something just for you. You deserve it!

I think it's great that you are more social, for starters. All I can say is take one step at a time. I think you just need to get adjusted to your change in personality and sometimes isolation helps you find yourself. Before you know it you'll be hanging with friends but for now you need alone time. And everyone who is saying you've changed, it's not a bad thing.
