Choosing a solitary lifestyle

My parents and friends keep nagging me to be more social and 'normal'. I feel frustrated and pressured to change who I am.

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew how to handle people's opinions and expectations without feeling so down."
If I could tell you one thing
"Don't be afraid to be yourself, even if that means being different from others."
