Thanks everybody for sharing your experiences. I know I'm not the only one struggling with this but it helps to actually hear from others going through the same thing. I think most people I associate IRL would not admit it if they change personas, and I doubt they do it to the same degree anyway. Sometimes I feel like I am demeaning myself by being such a chameleon but I suppose a more positive way to look at it is to say that I am simply being practical and doing what I need to do to survive. I'm pretty much certain that about 99.999% of the population can't handle 'all' of me. And I don't handle isolation well.
