Junior high was one of the hardest times for me, as well. The mood swings of puberty really don't mix well with feeling socially awkward to begin with, and having everything in flux.
I know what you mean, too, about masking one's shyness, and how exhausting that can be. Most recently I found myself doing this at my sister's wedding, where I was part of the wedding party. That's a lot of work for an introvert :-)
