But I've no faith in my feelings as I'm someone who suffers from poor mental health and the sort of feelings that go along with that.
So - no, but I've no faith in my feelings.

I've got poor mental health as well, so I can definitely agree with you on that last point. One other concern I have is that people put on different personas depending on the people they're with or the circumstances they're in. I do the same thing, so I don't know which of those performances is truly me. Or am I something else entirely?
