I can relate, or at least, I used to be able to, the man that this blogger is talking about. Now, to some extent, I have given up putting on a mask while socializing, because the exhaustion that always came after was just too much. My meltdowns have also decreased; I suppose there is a price that I'm paying for my decreased meltdowns....which I guess is just that people just don't talk to me as long as they used to when I actually do go out and socialize. Of course, these same people that might have appreciated my charm and wit when I bothered to use it, and might still today, don't know what kind of sacrifice I was making then, and what kind I would be making now, if I do dust it off and use it.
