I've felt I have a chameleon soul, just blending in very well to my surroundings. I can pick up on very subtle things and be who ever they want me to be. I've mimicked postures and accents without actually realizing what I'm doing. I can pretend that I'm interested in football when I could care less or laugh when I really don't want to. It's like watching everyone from behind a wall of glass. I can't get closer. I can hide the real me behind make up and bold red lipstick on the wards, but I've felt the same way:

"Can someone please tell me who I am. I haven't recognized myself in a while."

I am just a bunch of fragments my T is trying to integrate. But "I" come out when I've spent a lot of time alone away from others. I would recommend journaling too.
