Your description of the mask makes perfect sense to me. I'm sure we all put on masks to some degree, but to do it all the time would produce stress which in turn might lead to disability and disease.
Are there times when you can just be yourself and take off the mask? How does that feel?

we auties in a neurotypical world and even in the Mayo clinic connect group are masking to fit in and or to not go off the deep end at comments and hassles

@teresa, when I am around people who really care about me and actually show me they care...I am just myself.
Thank you for caring!
Love and light,
