When I was younger I was told on a pretty consistent basis to calm down, stop acting out, and above all else, to stop embarrassing myself.
All because I was a loud, somewhat outlandish, occasionally over-the-top, goofy, unashamed, extrovert.
So I worked hard to reign myself in, tried and tried and tried to keep my mouth shut when someone left an opening you could drive a very large truck through, and made a monumental effort to conform to the quiet norm.
Didn't work.
