Wishing star, I think a lot of people use their "fake self" a lot.
My T and I discussed this because I felt fake to some younger people who are starting to look up to me and ask advice and stuff. I am like how can I give advice on their personal relationships when mine (especially my marriage and childhood) are awful.
This is where we talked about like a heart surgeon can be a good doc even if he has a heart condition. I know he said something really good about this, but I forgot. LOLBut I think he was saying that people see something strong about you and they don't have to know all the bad stuff about you in order to help them. Something like that.
