yo, literally the worst thing you can do to yourself is to be someone you're not, I know bc I did the same thing, and I overthink everything and in my mind I make it my fault. Instead of telling my family who i really am, i found someone who i could talk to and she believed in me more than i did in myself, and it helped me to show everyone who i was, regardless of how my parents felt about who i really was, at the end of the day, i just knew that she was gonna be there for me.
Hey I am so glad you had the courage to say this. I am 16 as well and was adopted just a couple of years ago and had a lot of trauma to work through. I use to and sometimes still do lie. I was a master at it. I have three other siblings and we all were great at doing it. I have been in your shoes so many times. I have put up the biggest front so that people think I am always fine and all I want is to just have fun and go with the flow. But really I had a horrible relationship with my parents and even my siblings. I was so scared I was always going to get into trouble. I went to therapy and never said anything negative that was going on in my live. I had a horrible 7th, and 8th grade years. During 7th grade I had really fake friends and got into a lot of trouble, so my mom homeschooled me for my 8th grade year and that was when I really started to figure it out. The things I did were first talking to my siblings, then my parents, then lastly my friends. But I thought my parents would never understand because I am adopted but I couldn't believe how much they helped me. It may seem hard but I would really talk to a parent that you trust the most, for me it was my mom. We had battles and all but now our relationship is amazing and I can give a sh-it what people thing of me. I am weird, funny, sometimes crazy and love my personality. I have made the bestest of friends since then as well. So I just want to le t you know, it is alright to disagree with your friends. Then you will find your true friends who will understand your point of view and won't care if you talk about yourself sometimes. Be you don't be fake. People can tell when you are being your honest self and when you aren't. I believe that the person inside will truly flourish if you let your light shine. Hope that helps
