Who does not have the scars left by a few rebellious periods in the "edge of growth"?

I remember opening this movie in 2017, but because it was turned off at the beginning, when I opened it again in 2018, I felt that I had uncovered my own scars.
At first, I was a little confused when I watched the prelude, but maybe because of my own reasons, I felt very depressed when I saw the middle part, and I couldn't control myself in places where there were no tears. Seeing the female protagonist Nadine with thorns all over her body and wanting to make the people around her laugh at what she said, the embarrassment after sending erotic and explicit text messages to the boys in the dark when she lost control of her emotions (thanks here for letting me learn New word msg)... These remind me of my high school.
I always thought that everyone was "innocent" in junior high school, but after high school, everyone didn't know why. It's no longer just after class that everyone fights together and meets to say hi. Instead, small groups get together to form small groups, and there is less communication after university. But after watching this movie, I thought, I've been wondering if the environment has changed everyone? Has everyone changed because of interests and social relations?
No, maybe... I think it's me who has changed.
Because of her personality, Nadine likes to be out of tune with everyone. This is a certain degree of inferiority. "Unique" = "Unpopular", and then it will become an anomaly in the eyes of everyone, and gradually you will have no friends and low self-esteem.
I used to be hysterical with my best friend in high school, throw a small note to her saying "let's break up", and then go back to the dormitory at night to go back and forth and get back to her. Thinking about it now, is it the rebellious nerves of adolescence that are leading my little arrogant, or is it because I am too zealous?
If it wasn't for being too hypocritical and stingy, something would not have happened in the university.
I am not a reserved person in front of my friends. Why do I always care so much about other people's words and deeds? After the breakup of the dormitory relationship, I can't live a truly unrestrained life, but I am so careful?
Why should I live so tremblingly?
I hope that I can also be truly relieved of some things through time or some things.

This film review later became my own rant about the past.... But I hope those who have time to save it can take a good look and help you.
Some things are too late.
