Don’t force yourself to fit in where you don’t belong

So don’t force yourself to fit in where you don’t belong im going to explain this you you guys. Why am I feeling different from others. I felt that i’m different from others for most of my life. So I started to do research to find out why i’m different than others. Let me share what I found with you guys. You may have been bullied or ostracized at school. Or maybe your family is a little different. financially, racially, religiously. Or you move around a lot and never have the chance to develop the same deep friendships with other kids. Either way, you probably spent most of your childhood alone. At some point, this experience makes you believe that you are “different” from others. But here’s the thing: we’re a lot more alike than we thought. No matter how quirky, weird, or different you feel, you’re more like other people than different. You feel different simply because of your experience, not because you are different. The thing is, when we feel it, we’re more likely to act on it.

Therefore, it can be difficult for us to fully relax and feel uncomfortable in social situations because we feel different. Or we may be reluctant to connect and communicate with people because we can’t imagine how they want to spend time with us. Or we can numb ourselves with drugs and alcohol, desperately trying to get rid of this feeling and “fit in”. While we may react differently depending on our personal coping mechanisms, one thing remains the same: we will strive for authentic communication. So, feeling different, we finally fulfilled our self-prophecy. Our loneliness and isolation give us “proof” that we are different from others, as we think.

Don’t force yourself to fit in where you don’t belong – What does it look like

You may feel and experience any of the following. You feel like you stand out in social situations. The feeling may be so strong that you feel “physically sick”, as if you weren’t really there. You feel an overwhelming sense of loneliness, but you don’t know how to connect to it. You are trapped: you feel lonely and unhappy, but when you try to connect with people, you feel very shy and sometimes end up feeling worse. Social situations and parties scare you. Avoid them altogether or feel uncomfortable during this time and hide in corners. You need to drink to feel comfortable in society.

Social chameleon

Or you can be a social chameleon. You connect with others, you shape, but you leave with a feeling of emptiness: you don’t really know who you are behind it all. The Focus Effect: You think people are paying more attention to you than they actually are. The spotlight effect is a phenomenon in which we tend to believe that people are giving us more attention than they actually are. It is a cognitive distortion and one of the main contributors to social anxiety. We all experience the world with our own eyes, from our point of view: life is our own movie, we are its main characters. Naturally, this makes it hard to lose your temper and realize that everyone perceives the world as if it were their own movie. That awkward remark we made at the party that night went wrong.  Most likely, no one will notice. If they were, it might have been forgotten by now. In general, people are too preoccupied with themselves and their stories to focus on our mistakes. In fact, they probably care more about what they say or do than about us.

How to overcome different feelings

The most important part of overcoming this feeling is realizing that you are not as different from other people as you think. Some things that you consider unusual or strange may even be quite ordinary. After all, it’s about watching the stories that spin in your head. The therapist will help you trace this feeling and understand its origin. Finding out what is causing this feeling will help you understand that it is just a product of your experience and not the reality of things. If you feel very isolated, your therapist will help you overcome your fears and join social groups with like-minded people. Although it can be daunting at first, the rewards are worth it in the long run. The sense of belonging that comes with being part of a group can help you challenge your own ingrained beliefs that you are different from others.

Connectivity and our sense of fitness are basic human needs. Don’t force yourself to fit in where you don’t belong that’s why we always say this. Not only do you want it, everyone wants it. The more we understand this, the more we can be together, noting and accepting our similarities and our differences.
