Reconciling my personality with my dreams

Right on - it’s also the advice I give to people applying for jobs. Chasing an opportunity that demands you to be someone you are not is a route to frustration and dissapointment, not just for you but for everyone involved.

Being yourself might limit your options, but only to those for which you are ideally suited.

Why do people always flag posts instead of just responding with a counterargument?
Ponnuru is perfectly entitled to say this.

Anyway, I personally suggest not contributing in any way to a reliance, physical or psychological, on a chemical substance (natural or otherwise) to cope with social discomfort…unless it prescribed by a medical professional and you feel 100% satisfied with your understanding of its long term side effects / dependency characteristics.
