I am stressed out but still showing up like everything is fine… very on brand for me honestly 😅

Have to put on that happy face and show up.

You’re pretty. I gotta go now.

i think that's normal for a lot of people

What's the alternative? Being stressed and not showing up?

Most of us are like that.
Highly stressed inside but putting on an "ok" for the public.
It's actually even worse to do the because it eats you up inside.
