That's just about every day for me. I think people must know on some level that I put up a front, at least the people that I've worked with for a long time. Whatever it takes to get thru the day. Sometimes it's virtually impossible to hide and I get the questions- what's wrong, is something g bothering you? They still haven't got an idea what I go through to just make it through a day and then go home and carry the depression and anxiety with me.
Sometimes I wonder if I should just put a full on act and pretend to be the person i want to be but sometimes it's just too much because it' s so forced.
It's a constant challenge. I wish you the best.
