Sounds like you are doing just fine Our families alway stry to remake us in their own image, never realise until it is too late how awesome we are as oursleves.

It takes time to get comfy in your own skin. It's taken me over 50 years and counting.

And they are still out of order. Boo hiss!

You are awesome, stay that way.
