A quick test for this is, are you good at making a good first impression or short time of friendship and then it kinda falls off with time? If yes, masking is likely in play.
Can confirm. This is my entire life.

Lucky me, I’ve never been ‘with it’.
I’m groaning so hard while feeling really happy at the same time, it hurts. Thanks.
Where I live the dog shampoo costs more than the human shampoo.
Or you mean the conditioner?
I don’t like it, haven’t really needed it, prefer public transport and have terrible motor skills.
I really enjoyed reading your story. It’s honest about your faults and kind to yourself at the same time. I hope I can find a way to see my own life in a similar way.
I get it, most of my life I’ve had episodes that are more like yours, and my brain just found this and it doesn’t want to let go for a reason. The first couple of months I thought it was the best escape, but once I realized I couldn’t stop, I’ve been despairing. I feel like I’m going mad but more quietly rather than explosively.
Daydreaming. I’m sick of it, but I keep going there.
I like that Cory Doctorow is pretty open about having been scammed despite being quite well informed, because it really can happen to anyone. It just takes the right convergence of factors.
Vad har det med Sverige att göra? As a Spanish speaker, that’s just one its meanings in Spanish.
I’ve never smelled ants, but like maybe ants in Sweden don’t smell? It’s why I wanted to know which kinds.
Which ants? All ants?
I never knew I wanted to know this much about centaurs.
I don’t see anything mentally unhealthy about what you do, sounds cool.
Time to hit the gym, or my husband is dead.
I’m 37 and I can never get a parrot. :(
But a parrot could get me for a little while.
I was accelerated (though nowhere like this) and for me, personally, it wasn’t great. 14 was not the right age for me to decide to be a doctor and enroll. I did the whole thing and I have the diploma but I never worked in the field because I had completely burned out by then.
Of course I’m also AuDHD and maybe my mental health wouldn’t be any better in different circumstances, we’ll never know.
A small pond the size of a large pond
This is how I feel with my little wild garden. I just visit, show some encouragement, and remove an obstacle or two.
Funny, seeing them at the top gave me a favorable impression of them, but seems to have caused the opposite for you. My impression was probably due to, like someone else said, feeling like maybe they’re not being drilled with as much anti-union propaganda.
But I’m from a place where you have to go out of your way not to be part of a union.
