I understand this very well. I have always presented better than I actually felt or functioned. I speak too well and PUSH very hard to accomplish things. It creates confusion and a disbelief that things are as bad as I describe. Because of this, people expect too much of me and argue that I can do more than I think I can. It is denigrating.
