I don’t know what to call this, maybe some sort of defensive mechanism. I am a very quiet person, to the point you would think I’m mute. as a kid, when people talk to me, I have this natural response as to talk to people a lot, Because they don’t like people as quiet as me, it is almost like a second mask. It’s really bad since even my family doesn’t realise im like this, I don’t even know how to control it. And it’s like I’m stuck and no one really knows the real me,and I constantly cry over it
