> Paula - what is the difference between what you're describing and simply trying to pretend you're something you're not? I could go around and pretend I don't have depression (or more to the point, actively hide the fact that I do) and I've created a cocoon of isolation. I marvel at people who are able to self confidently act "as if" but it seems to me that unless you're able to convince yourself that it's not an act, you have to feel like you're living something of a lie?
Am I misunderstanding something?
