So I'm 23, almost 24 now and I'm finally starting to

If you improve people will absolutely not see you as the way you were. Improvement intimidates people, and I'm not just saying that as like "fuck the haters bro", even a good friend who is perfectly well intentioned will be intimidated by your improvement.

So I guess don't feel bad if people act negative towards you, it's a natural reaction, keep improving and listen part of improving is meeting new people and making new friends, push yourself to do this and you won't even have to worry that they might think of you forever as the old you.

What can i do to gain closure for my old emotions Ive never dealt with? What would be the point of going through all of this if i still act like the current me? Thanks

You'll get over it.

I was complete beta twig in high school. I decided to reinvent myself in college and it worked, became alpha chad. No one remembered my hs self after I changed, even the people I went to hs with.

One thing even after my transformation I was always embarassed about was I never went to prom. Idk why specifically that, but hs left me with a lot of emotional damage. It took a little longer than that but I got over everything.

Thanks bro. I went to prom but I went with my lesbo buddy. Nobody talks about it now but knowing me id be depressed if I didnt go so I know how you feel.

I'm one of those that made it bro, been there. I'm very harsh on myself but it does further push me I do a lot of things to keep me going but I never feel any is enough.

Honestly just don't think, just do. Your mind and body will act on it as it comes based on chemistry, reactions and experiences you have dealt with. Every moment is new opportunity to change that, a lot of components such as chemist outweigh your control over it sometimes its better to let your body natural take control and do the best course of action without thinking to much behind it. For example how to deal with negative people. You will always do what you hope or think is best, don't question it but learn from it. As in if you come off feeling worse consider why.

Some people are just slow starters man. Slow starters typically didn't have the same assets others do.

Me myself...i was poor and from a broken home. I hung around alot of bad chsracters. It took alot of trial and error before i looked myself in the mirror and realized I am doing 'it' wrong. I changed my ways. I was about the same age as you. Its just life man. It sometimes goes thag way.

I can tell this guys never had a "good friend". He's probably spiteful. But hes right. Living a better life will make people show you more respect.

I had everything you listed, maybe it was not perfect but I could check everything on the list. Pretty much stumbled upon most improvements that "upgraded" me and never realized through intellect what I was or should be improving like you did
