Pretending to be normal

Does anyone else feel that they can pretend like they're normal for a short amount of time (and actually cope quite well like a regular person in the outside world) but after a couple of weeks the effort is too much and you crash and burn out and cant "be normal" anymore?

  • Yes, in the past.  Nowadays, I liberally sprinkle some of my "weirdness" each and everyday for all to see......but more importantly, I no longer try to rationalise that behaviour to others.  "Coz I'm weird" is the full extent of a volunteered answer, if I am challenged on my 'flapping' or incessant self-chatter.
