I want to share something personal with you. It might sound a bit strange, but I feel like I really need someone who can understand me or guide me a little. I've been struggling with myself for a long time — my expressions, the way I talk, and even the way I think all feel confusing and not truly mine.

I feel like I don’t have a real personality of my own. Since childhood, I’ve been surviving by copying others, and now I feel like I’ve lost myself. I genuinely want to become better, but I feel alone in this journey.

If you can understand because I think Europe people's face these problem they have solutions what I’m going through, or guide me a bit, or even just listen, it might help me start healing. It wasn’t easy to write this, but I honestly want to grow and become a better version of myself.

Thank you for reading this."

@saz15 I can sense how much courage it took to put your feelings into words, and I want you to know that I hear you. Feeling disconnected from yourself like you don’t have a clear sense of who you are, can be isolating and it’s brave of you to recognize that.

It’s not strange at all and you’re definitely not alone in wanting to find yourself. The way we sometimes feel we’ve lost our authentic selves is often a product of external pressures like trying to meet expectations, mimic others or just survive. But that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to reconnect with who we really are.

Besides, you don’t need to figure everything out all at once and it’s okay to take your time. Being kind to yourself along the way is key💙
