Is it normal that i am constantly trying to hide my emotions??

Whether I'm happy, sad, mad, etc I never let my face show it. I try not to make myself look too stoic, but I do try to keep people from being aware of my feelings. Is this normal?

  • I think a lot of people do this. However, you should express emotions around your loved ones so they can tell the difference between when you're upset and when they shouldn't worry.

    Really normal. To me i can hide it but there are juust these moments when i think and feel sad that i dont talk. I can't escape it.

    I do this. For some reason, I feel that if I show emotion that people will think I'm weak. But sometimes it's impossible to mask my emotions, like when I feel like crying. The tears tend to spew out regardless of where I am. When this happens I usually try to find a place to hide....

      Just saying, never hide or mask your emotions, it's dangerous. Just because others are to ignorant and stupid to be understanding, doesn't mean you have to be flat and emotionless like them. I know it sound kinds crude, but I was doing the same thing for years until one day.. it was just like...FUCK YOU ALL- IF YOU CANT HANDLE WHO I AM- THEN FUCK OFF!!!!!! no problems since then...but that's just my experience. Everyone has the right to freedom!
