This is bang on. People assume that because I have a good state of normalcy that everything is okay and that I should be capable of working, etc. They don't see the PTSD and anxiety because I put on a good front. They don't see the individual who at the drop of that hat can fall into debilitating depression or mania. They don't see the person who keeps quitting jobs on account of the fear and anxiety. They don't see that sometimes it is all I can do to appear to be normal.
