However, with the new things i have discovered, i constantly find myself to be looked at with some kind of suspicion by others, may it be some women or some orthodox people i live with. I dread being a left out in my community with the new understanding i have developed. Any suggestions / thoughts on this? Reply to this Question Share |

I don't know what kind of community it is that you live in or what the people there are like. Are they suspicious of you because you don't fit their way of life, or are they suspicious of you because you suddenly are more positive?
If it is the latter, rest assured that they will come to terms with your change sooner or later. Sometimes when a person you know well change, you don't know how to handle it and wonder what on earth made this person change. They'll snap out of it sooner or later.
If they're suspicious of you because you don't fit their way of life, then maybe you need to find new friends who will be more open to who you are now?
Try to have a chat with the people you live with about how you're seeing life in a more positive way and how it makes you feel. If they realize this is for your good, then maybe they will accept your change quicker?

Tell people that you have suddenly become positive because life is worth living and there's no point wasting life by being negative all the time. That way they should hopefully understand.
