That's a hard thing to do since you're this persona around people, you fool yourself into thinking that's who you really are. Slowly break away from the character so everyone can adjust to the real you. Or you can do it at once. There really isn't a right way to do it.

The only way to stop being the 'me' that other people think you are is too. first, look deep down within and asked yourself why to feel compel to confront to these people perception of you. And once your answer this asked yourself what these people would do if you be yourself. I have had several relationship strengthen with being more honest with them and the ones that didn't accept me for being I discover it was painful that they are no longer involve but I am better off without them. In a nutshell just discover who you are and accept it. You have to be bold and have the courage to be you.

Becoming your true self can be a long and difficult path, but you already have the most important thing: to will to move forward and make a change in your life! Try to remember at all times what you are fighting for, why you are doing all of this. It will give you the strength to show you truly are, to express yourself. Make sure that people get the chance to know you for who you truly are: they deserve to know the real you, and you deserve to be your true self. Just try to be open with the people around you, and maybe start opening up to the people you trust the most first, so they can be by your side along this journey. Always keep your goal in mind, and turn it into your strength. Remember that, no matter how hard it will be, in the end being who you truly are is what will lead you to freedom - and freedom is the key to happiness. I wish you the best!
