I feel as if I can’t be myself in front of people and when I finally show all my colors they leave. I don’t do anything different, but it’s like they just can’t deal with the real me/all of me. Any helpful words? I just don’t know what to do about it anymore. I can’t be open to everyone because of my family/community. Idk anymore.

Not sure if these words will help
But if anything just know i hear you
I think that if its on a basic surviving level, sometimes you may need to hide things just to get by
But if its not that,
I think being truly yourself is the most fufilling to your soul, and just because some people may not like that, does not mean theres anything wrong with the colors you bear
There are so many reasons, that solely has to do with the other person, why theyd run away. But its no reflection of you.
I know it hurts to be rejected, but heres how i think of this
This is my only life, my only life to be me and share that real me with someone who may actually find it charming, lovely, healing, helpful etc
Someone will admire the bravery eventually
And if not, why waste my, MY life, hiding my colors so other people dont get bothered. When they are allowed to be themselves, speak their mind, paint their pictures, why cant i?
Life means and feels so much more when you can just try to let your real self show.
So yknow
Im proud of you, good job for even taking the step to be yourself and have people not like it
Thats really brave
And in my eyes it means youre doing something really right (as long as youre not hurting anyone of course)
I wish you very well
