Advice for a New Revert in a Non-Muslim Family

Salaam everyone, I hope you're all well. I'm reaching out because I'm a recent revert to Islam, alhamdulillah, and I live in a Mexican household. Only my mom knows about my faith. Since I came back from college, I've faced a lot of pressure for 'acting different'-like being quieter, not drinking, or avoiding family gossip. It's really frustrating and annoying because I'm just trying to maintain my composure and stay true to my beliefs. Has anyone else gone through something similar? Embracing Islam has been the best decision of my life, alhamdulillah, and I'd never give it up. But my family keeps criticizing me, saying I'm boring now, and I'm starting to think I might need some distance for my mental health. Any advice or support would mean a lot. Jazakallah khair.
