Has anyone here learned a language to find a new identity ?

Even though we are litterally born into a maternal language(TL) that we learn throughout our whole life,with which we experience a vast amount of emotions,memories,conversations etc...

I wonder if it can feel as if someone had too much hardship going on in they life,bad periods and in order to make a big change,they learn a whole new language to kind of create a certain distance between them and their language that is associated with negativity.

Has it been the case for you?
