NOTE TO SELF: Why do so many people struggle to 'be themselves' and what can you do about it?
Have you ever acted unlike you? Have you done something that it's usually not you? Or maybe you speak a certain way? Or pretend to be someone who you are not, just so you can fit in? Sounds familiar? Well, this can be pretty common for many and especially young people trying to find their feet. There's often pressure to fit in and meet the expectations of others, which can make it hard to stay true to yourself. However, being authentic is essential to living a fulfilling life and finding happiness.
