Reinventing Yourself

Post Reply New Topic

Have u ever reinvented yourself? I just started to care about fashion, listen to pop music, and hang out with friends. I might cry in public once in a while, but I've gotten much better about hiding my AS.

I reinvented myself when I started year 8. I cut off my hair, bought awesome clothes, and ditched my boyfriend who was making me feel unconfident all the time. I would suggest it, but only if you can go through with it and you are really passionate about it

Nope. Don't ever plan to either. I'd much rather just be who I actually am than a version of me I created to please random strangers I quite frankly couldn't care less about anyway.

Yeah in middle school I was slightly punk mostly a nerd, I talked a lot and got in a lot of fights.

Going into high school I decided to take a different approach since nobody knew me and I tried to keep my mouth shut unless I was specifically asked to speak. I also met a guy who got me into metal and I completely ditched punk for the new more aggressive sound.

I never really had a problem crying in public during my school years. I learned at an early age to convert all my sad feelings into anger because I knew it was the more acceptable emotion for a guy.

I Reinvented myself in grade 7 , but since that didn't work out I went back to my old self. I've always cared about fashion so I still care about fashion, but I don't listen to pop music.

I think that I only found my "real self" in year 8, so I didn't really "reinvent myself" as such, but started showing my true self. In primary school all I wanted to do was hide who I was.

I went from not knowing who Lady Gaga was to being obsessed with pop music. I love listening to Lady Gaga, Jordin Sparks, Jessica Jarrell (You might not have heard of her; she sings "Almost Love."), Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Demi Lovato, and Beyonce. I also love the song Fireflies by Owl City. I'm not a big fan of Justin Bieber.

I do it quite often, but not really extremely.

I might be really Decora for a day/week (Decora is Japanese brightly coloured fashion) and then be Gothic for a day or so, and then punk, then not bother, then be Chav (Gangster?) and then be "Fashionable"..
I just do whatever I feel like. I don't really have one particular style

I reinvented myself from being an anime geek (otaku) to being a film geek. I'm an especially big fangirl for Tim Burton and Johnny Depp.

no not really. Although I was weird looking and did not give a care in the world how I lookedin grades 5th-7th grade because I hated going to school and I just hated everything. I was fat, I had bad fashion sense (long bermuda shorts and t-shirt) . But I went through a growth spurt in like 8th grade and lost all my fattiness, and then I started to wear a little makeup (mascara only and foundation under my geneticly dark eye circles), and I wear better clothes. Physically I look like the average teenager, but i have bad social problems, I stim in public alot...

I reinvented myself again. I only have trouble with emotional regulation once or twice a month.

I have done so, at least partially. Not so much in my identity, more in the way people view me. It feels awesome.

I tried to be more like everybody else a few years ago, but it didn't work.
