Trying To Fit In A New Community

The feeling of being left out or being different is one of the most painful emotional experience for a human. Yet it is one of the most universal feeling in modern civilization. At one point in the life of a person they will experience being left out, or different from a group, which most of the time is me attempting to fit in a community where I feel I don’t belong. Generally, when trying to join a new community for the first time I feel obligated to attempt to fit in. For example, in the past I have joined a community event with a whole new community I wasn’t very familiar with and I felt desperate to make myself fit in so I don’t feel left out or different. Even though it was only for one day, I felt exhausted, worn out and beaten by not being able to fit in correctly.
