I come from a very warm, loving and caring country.
But when I say warm, I mean the good and the bad because people tell you in your face what's on their minds.

When I just arrived to the states 2 year ago I ad a culture shock.
Everyone was smiling to each other and repeated the same sentences like "Have a nice day" or "how are you"
For me it seems fake and distant. It made me feel they're like robots and they don't really care how's my day.
I got to know so many people here that suffer from depression and I truly believe it's a result of putting masks all day long. No body really share their emotions or being real with each other.
I love the U.S, but I guess I still have problems with fitting in when it comes to culture habits.
Thanks for this!
