First, you have a beautiful talent expressing yourself with words. I feel the same way myself. I walk around with a mask on all the time. I have lived my life as others have wished to the point I don't know who I am.
This has been a very long journey for me and I am only at the start. Have you tried finding someone close to you that you could share your thoughts and feelings with? If you're like me, you might not trust anyone enough to speak candidly with them. In that case, I have found that therapy is very helpful. Your therapist is someone you can speak with about anything and everything without fear of judgment. It takes time, and I am still in a place I don't want to be, but the light is there.
