    Hi,

    Has this happened to you? I am the beginning of my "journey" and I'm starting to feel a bit like my personality is changing. E.G. I feel strangely more confident - in weird ways like how I dress even though my clothes are the same, I'm happier with the "outfits" I put on.

    I've also started to pepper my conversations with a bit of swearing. Not sure that's all that good. Guess I'm just feeling a bit bolder. Not taking any more shit, I guess. Oops. Did it again.

    I don't know about you but I'm quite different with friends, family and at work. So am I going to have a 4th personality now? Or just 3 modified ones? Maybe I'll be lucky and they'll all merge into one.

    On a side note, I was on the phone with my sister the other day and she asked "What's up? You sound giddy." Now, I didn't particularly feel giddy but who knows. I'm not someone you'd normally associate with giddiness. So...
     
  2. Self-acceptance and coming out radically changed my demeanor, my comfort level with others, my confidence and much much more. I used to me more unhappy, more quiet, more timid, more unsure of myself. I still am each of those things sometimes, but to a far lesser extent.

    It's totally a thing that happens.

    Personally, I think it's totally normal to be a bit different depending on environment/present company, but yes it is possible to merge those personalities or tendencies together a bit. Could happen.

    I've noticed the same changes in myself. Like I'm more ... Me.

    It makes me feel kind of sad that all my life, the way I felt, my perceived normal, was less than ... all Me.

    But, better late than never right.
