Is it normal if i never feel like myself unless i'm alone?

It's this super natural feeling I get where I never feel like I'm expressing who I am to the world. It takes some different individuals for me to feel naturally comfortable with them to easily be myself around. But the majority of the time and with the majority of people, I cannot seem to find myself. It has made a huge impact in my life and I honestly am considering myself like some abnormal person because I cannot get along with others since I can't even be myself around them in the first place. I try and be myself and it comes out awkward and not right. I wish I can wake up one day and feel like myself no matter what environment I'm in or who I'm surrounded by.

    Im the same way.. i don't know how to be myself when im around other people so i end up telling lies and acting like someone im not to try and convince people to like me.

    I think its more-so that you think that ur actual self is not worthy of being around people and no one will like you for who you actually are so we try to act differently. At least i think thats what the problem is for me.

    I feel most at ease and best when Im alone. I think its normal, though a lot of people hate being alone. I feel like there is nobody to please and nobody to tell me what to do or take care of....
