Where has my confidence gone? I used to be...?!


Question: In elementary school and junior high, I was the girl who everyone wanted to be friends with. I was outgoing and could "date" any boy I wanted. I was so happy and had a ton of friends. When I got into high school, I started drinking and smoking pot a little earlier than most other people because of a boy, I broke up with him after 10 mos. and didn't really smoke pot again, it wasn't hard to quit-I never missed it. I still drank, but not a ton. I'd say average amount for people in my school, maybe once a month. Now, I feel nervous around people I don't know. I can't say I have one friend that would stick with me through thick and thin but I am always good to my friends, try and help them with anything, I get nothing in return. It seems like the friends I have only care about themselves and Im really not that important to them but it's hard for me to make new friends. I have a great boyfriend, sweet guy and we are happy, good job, good school, why am I not confident with myself anymore???

you need a vacation and body mu sag that's my theory on that. Or you could just say that's you need see someone.

meee to. i use to have so much confidence but it went away, when i got in jr high i started going drugs (not like shooting up or anything, ew) drinking, and smoking. i dont anymore im 19 and grew up. i still drink sometimes. but im slowly gaining that back. it takes time, there is no reason to become non-confident soemtimes it just happens. youll get it back.
