Hi there. Its first time stumbling upon this website while searching answers for my own. Read your article and felt a similar c9nnection to what you are feeling. I registered so that I can share my own thoughts with you.
Firstly, do not feel alone (if you are feeling that way). I also do feel very different from the people around me. Infact, this “being different” feeling has made to try to take many actions to try and be same as others but it just doesnt work out. I begin to feel ao out of place and after some time I just deny the “commoners” and just be myself.
While being myself, I feel like I am losing relationships and it doesnt feel good at all. I feel lost all the time. But as I read articles and post around the world wide web, I realise that there are so many of us around. Try reading biographies of well-known people like Steve Jobs – you will see how quite similar our situation is. We are just different and we have to accept that. If we try to fit ourselves to the common pool then we will lead a fake life.
Life your life the way you want it. And live it to the fullest.
