Firstly, hello and welcome to the forum.
We all have to adapt our personalities to some extent to fit our role, especially in the earlier stages of our careers.
There are some tasks that naturally require concentration and quiet ... why not try and do those tasks at times of the day when you know you are at risk of being too chatty? so if your habit is to come into the office and chat to catch up with folk find a job you need to concentrate on to start your day - perhaps some filing? the bonus of that choice is you will feel great all day because you have a horrid job done and out of the way for the day.
It takes about 4 weeks of consistently doing something for it to become a habit ... so it takes 4 weeks of doing something different to change habits ...
One word of advice though ... please don't try to make a big change in one go - far more likely to succeed in a series of small adjustments and nobody will think you are suddenly being unfriendly.
... as for chatting ... come and visit on here in your breaks and chat with DD friends.
Cathy
