I’ve embraced my extra behaviour now and my friends don’t seem to mind and my view is why should I hide who I am, if you don’t like re me for me then that’s fine.

Now my friends all know my quirks and there is some gentle ribbing at times, but again embrace who you are.

I’m open about me overthinking and when I feel I as m doing it I’ll say so. They’re good with me disappearing for a week when I need some alone time to recharge and they’re good constantly fact checking them when they talk some bull shit based on vibes.

I guess it’s true that as you age you begin to filter yourself less as frankly it’s exhausting.
