This resonates a lot with me. Were you bullied as well? Perhaps the worst part of constantly being uprooted was that as the new kid in class you are a natural soft target for bullies. It lead to the vicious cycle of: I'm new and afraid of my new peers, so I'm on my own most of the time, so I'm an easy target for bullies, so they go after me, so I become more withdrawn. It was relentless and it has made me very anxious of social settings with new people. You eventually learn to fake it, but the emotional scarring remains.
