Here's the issue, I feel like I have to lie every time that I am asked how i'm doing, i hate it. I want to tell the truth, but don't know if someone is strong enough to handle the truth. I'm dealing with a lot, and can't talk to to many people.

Does anyone else feel guilty about lying of how they are actually doing?? Does anyone feel like it makes things worse??

it's normal for me to say "good" even if i'm crying in pain. generally peorple don't care it's just another way to say hi. allthough i do this to my therapist and i'm screaming inside just tell her what are you waiting for. then i mull over it silently cause i am trying to reach out without actually reaching out!!

I been living a marriage lie for almost 6 yrs and no one knew I was suffering....hiding a painful secret. It was killing me and thankfully I found PC. I get so tired of acting like everything is normal.

Yes! My husband hasn't a clue the torment and turmoil and fear that I am feeling.
