How to stop being a specific type of person you dont like?
You know those people who you can tell right away are miserable, have a bit of an ego, cocky, act like they know it all, or like others look up to them. The people who try to be encouraging all the time, even if someone didnt ask for it. Try to push you constantly to be better, make others feel like they need to impress them. The stereotypical grandad who takes no shit and has been to war 4 times and won't stfu about it... that guy.
I feel like im that type of person, even though im only 24 years old. I dont really have any friends because I dont like hanging around those type of people and those are the people I naturally end up around. Its depressing af. Im miserable, depressed and its obvious to other people. A lot of people tend to look up to me, but I dont have the mental energy to provide that support. It doesnt help that im not intentionally trying to be that type of person, so being around others who are the same annoys me, since I guess I understand why they are like that and the fact they are fine with it and not willing to change gets to me.
It seems obvious to just notice it and change how I act around people, but then I dont feel like myself. This leads to me being that guy even more, since it builds up over time, trying to keep it in. Im sure many people have felt this way. I grew up around these people. My grandad was aggressive, my dad was always angry, my mum was physically abused from past relationships that I had to watch without understanding what was happening. Ive just happened to become that type of person due to my environment but at the same time, im aware of whats its like for others to experience.
Sorry if this is long and dramatic sounding. I kinda got into it as I was writing, but its still all true and I want it to be taken seriously. thanks...
