    Are you a social chameleon? Wearing "masks" and feeling completely, utterly ALONE

    Today I'm expanding on my stories from last week that blew up my DM's: about feeling completely, utterly alone — and wearing different masks depending on the social setting — being a social chameleon, of sorts.
