I have been impersonating someone on the internet because I had no friends and was bullied a lot. I just wanted to make friends.
The person I was impersonating was male; probably because I wanted some female friends.
I made friends as this other person and I felt loved and wanted. I also made friends as myself so, I wanted to stop being this other person but I couldn't, it felt like they were my life too.
I got found out last night.
I'm scared of what may be wrong with me and also what will happen to me for impersonating someone else
I'm 16 and from the UK
Can anyone help me on this? Or just give me some information.

Just come clean with those that you befriended when pretending to be someone else.....I wouldnt worry to much about it...we all have gone through phases of testing out who we are...

As Mouse said its all part of growing up you will be forgiven I feel purely because of your age.

To the ones who get upset by it I would just avoide them as they will be either young like you or have forgotten what it is to be young !

Hugs to you and try to forgive yourself, in other words dont beat yourself up over it hun. Time will pass and people will forget thats life.
