I find myself having to act like someone else just to get through work and get on with colleagues and talk in the shops. Don't know if there's a term for it. I wish I could just be myself but I don't think I could get through the day if I did that.
It's called "masking" or "survival". Either you learn to do that, or you will end up in a psych ward or a jail. It's not pleasant, but will keep you living.
