I admire you because I have an inkling that you haven't really told me how bad it was being a teenager. And it's so good to have you around and getting on with your life, pursuing happiness.
Honestly...once I hit 14 or 15, the rest of my career as a teenager was shite. Most of it was in my head of course, but how can you know that as a teen with all these social forces storming around you? The only reason I didn't get overwhelmed until I was 14 was because my mental age was about 2 years behind everyone else. I was very childish at 12 years old. More like a 9 year old. SO when all the social intrigues and delicate balances began coming in, I was completely oblivious to who I was being rejected by, who was insulting me etc.
