Yes, usually very real since I have loose defenses.
When I feel like a young child, that's the realest I could ever feel. Young children are spontaneous, untouched by biases, education, strong opinions. That's when I feel most authentic. Although I realize the opinions and biases are equally real, there's something liberating about being in those child states. Unpretentious, carefree, and perpetually curious.
Kind of regret showing the negative parts of myself at times but oh well.
