Alright, I have opinions. and I'm gonna express them a bit more on here.

I have spent the majority of my life, trying to please other people. I realized how jacked up this was and tried to fix it, by being myself, but when things got hard, I auto piloted. I'm not a quitter and I'm stubborn af, so it's not like I was giving up. It was such a natural reaction, that it has taken me until today to realize that I'm doing it again.

This is my life, and I will not waste it trying to please others.

I don't care if you want a quiet daughter, or student. I am introverted, but I will not let my opinions be changed and molded into something another person wants. I don't care if it's the friggin queen of England telling me I need to change my opinions. My opinions go hand in hand with who i am. Strip me of my opinions and my voice, and I am nothing.

This is dramatic, but this is exactly how i feel. I guess this is also that "phase" but to that, i say go the heck away. (Let me grow up without your freakin psychology book, please.)
