Owz600 Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) I am 19 and I broke up with my girlfriend of 3 years 4 days ago. Past year and a half my personality has changed and I am now more unhappy than ever. I was looking back on my Bebo comments today going through months of comments, I noticed I was fun, funny, flirty, cool, sociable, confident and people made an effort to talk to me and wanted to hang around with me, everyone loved my company. Currently I am none of the above. I want that person back but where do I begin? This change in personality has cost me my friends, girlfriend and I feel I have lost my direction. My confidence is low and my self esteem is zero. I put myself down all the time and I always self defeat. Since our brake up I am finding that I have been able to get motivation past few days and have applied for a new job at a Tv centre. I hate my current job which I have been in for a year and a half, I think this has contributed to making me unhappy. I have forced myself to go out even though it's with some people I would rather not it's a means to get out of the house, most of my friends went to University, I didn't go as I wasn't sure of which career I would enjoy and if I would be bothered to do all those essay's. I want to be a successful happy guy but when your faced with so many issue's you doubt yourself. Where do I begin to recover my old personality or will I never get it back? Thank you for reading.

TaraMaiden Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Seems to me you just mislaid it for a while.... As for getting it back - have you not now begun that process....? Link to post Share on other sites
Keridan Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I think this would be a fake it till you make it kinda thing. I have gone through many times in my life where I lost my outgoing character traits and felt very self conscious. The only luck I had in bringing it back was when I tried to pretend it never left. Always felt weird at first, but since it is a part of my personality, I eventually became myself again. Don't search, just act like it's there and it will be Hope that's of some help. Only thing that worked for me. Good luck! Link to post Share on other sites
