  • love and acceptance? just for putting on a mask? how can I learn this skill?

    If you ever did something that you disliked or thought was dumb but was “what others expect of you”, congratulations, you’ve applied masking. If you ever hid or resisted a behavior that other people would complain about, despite said behavior not being troublesome, you’ve also applied masking.

    We get “love and acceptance” (mostly acceptance) when we mask because we fit in with a group, but that’s where we can get socially and mentally exhausted, because it’s not “the real” us that’s fitting in.
