I'm the same recluse. It's normal for me to not have much emotion.. maybe its easier? My face is usually like this - Neutral I find it easy to just be quiet, maybe slip off un-noticed. I hate being like this but anything else and I feel fake. I feel uneasy.

Sometimes i feel that i don't care about anything. I'd say that i fake happiness more than half the time. Well Steven Seagal has no emotion on his face so maybe it's a good thing Wink

I'm not in many situations where I have to fake happyness to people, but to be honest I don't even bother doing that. I feel like i've imploded in on myself.

Steven Segal is rich enough not to care Laughing

I feel very much the same way. Unemotional, lacking motivation (in fact I'm struggling to type this at the moment) I'm very quiet and find it very difficult to express myself emotionally around other people. I'm a total recluse and have no real life friends whatsoever.

Yeah I love being me. Sad

I'm a very emotional person, but when I'm depressed I just don't have the energy to deal with extremes of feeling so I tend to stay very quiet and cut myself off from people far more than usual. Lately at work I just can't be bothered to join in with conversations. I make the occasional effort but mostly I drift off into my own thoughts and blot out my surroundings.

Even when I'm not depressed though, I find myself being fake around people, like faking interest when I'm bored and faking happiness when I'm down. I feel as though the real me, with my random (sometimes inappropriate) thoughts, overactive imagination and mercurial moods is just not socially acceptable and has to be hidden. Sometimes I get a strong urge to just let it all out and tell everyone to go f*ck themselves if they don't like it Twisted Evil

that happens to me too when im out in public but when im at home i find something to do to somehow express myself (ex:playing a video game and saying stuff out loud) or go to forums and post in a variety of aliases. If you dont want to express yourself out in public you dont need to. I prefer to think that everybody else but me has a soul. It makes me laugh
