I have tried the "fake it til you make it" trick.
I kind of fell into the habit of doing that now. Mostly because I realized as a child I was indirectly told to repress my emotions.
For awhile now I thought I was being overemotional a lot.
I was at times, but a few days ago I realized I actually just suppress stuff a lot more than become overemotional.
In all, I know that, if I try the faking it trick it makes me more depressed. Maybe because, personally, I don't have people in my (non-online/offline) life to talk to. But, the more I try to fake it, the more agitated I become emotionally and it makes things worse.
I'd rather sit in a depression, because personally, I can think things through.
Rather than, faking it and never addressing a bit of it.
Then it would just last longer for me
Than if I had just had addressed some part of it...at least.
