As a bilingual, how do i becom native in my own language

on

I'm posting here, hope it's allowed, because i need mods approval for the billingual thread.

I've always prouded myself with being able to fluently speak English and be flexible with the language. I write during my free time and most of the time i write in English. For some reason i find it easier to write in English. I decided to try querying in my country and...Surprise! I can't write in my own native language.

I think it's because all these years i've been focusing too much on perfecting my English, plus the majority of content i consume is in English. Although, i read mostly in my native language.

But yeah...I can't write a proper sentence in my NA. I even tried writing a scene in English and then translating it to NA.. Let's just say i ended up using Google translate.

I love that i'm being able to speak English fluently, but it's emberassing not being ale to articulate myself in my mother's tongue. It's even more emberassing considering one of my passions is writing.
