And I am scared.

The pain is awful....I am screaming and no one hears. I am in pain that is invisible. There is nothing left of me to fight it with.

I can't treat myself to solitude There are others here that I must pretend for.

I quit pretending with family members awhile ago. It's harder at work, it's not that people don't understand necessarily, I think it's more that they don't know how to deal with you after you tell them. It can make for an awkward association. I don't really have any friends I can talk with about this so I don't know there.

I am sorry you are going through this. I wish I knew how to help, but I don't... Try to hang in there!

I quit pretending, as well. Sometimes, I make an effort to reach out. Sometimes, I withdraw. But I don't pretend anymore. Because it does not help.
I am sending you a big hug, Sophie's mom!
