People often laugh at me and see me as a simp, I don’t know what gives them this impression but I don’t want to be seen as one.

All you have to do to preserve your individuality. Don’t accept a label for yourself that someone else has created. You have a name, use it. Not only will this undo the brainwashing of groupthink, but you’ll be much happier too. The news is designed to control your emotions by inducing fear and panic. Every day they act like the world is coming to an end. Yet when I turn the TV off, the world keeps on spinning. Think your own thoughts. Speak your own words. Ignore the rhetoric.
Cut out social media. The exceptions would be using social media for work purposes, to connect with like-minded individuals and to follow resources that provide value instead or propaganda. Listen to others as much, or more, than you speak. Conversations should be two-way and shouldn’t sound like one person recruiting the other to their way of thinking.
A simpleton is a really gullible person, a foolish person. Before you can call yourself a simpleton and even seek help on how to stop being one, I can only try to imagine whatever it is you’ve gone through and I’m so sorry about that. I don’t think anyone is a simpleton, it’s simply a term that bullies came up with to make some individuals feel less like a person. There are times when acts of kindness are mistaken for weakness, it doesn’t always translate to that. But to answer your question, the first thing you can do is to love yourself first. Acknowledge yourself, how you see yourself will determine how others see you. That which you want people to see in you, you starry exhibit it.
