So clearly for the 48years I’ve been on this planet I’ve always masked and actually haven’t gotten to know who the real me is, I’m always the people pleaser and go with the flow even when I’m never comfortable and very nearly close to, or in total shutdown. So my question is this, how do I get my point across or explain my feelings or situation to people like Doctors, family, benefits people or therapists when I’m masking and can’t stop? I always say what I think people want me to and this obviously isn’t always what’s right for me. The only way I can fully explain myself is by reading questions then writing the answers but then I need quiet to do so. Please help
