I feel really torn between the person I am and the person I really want to be

I feel I’ve almost created a real life ‘persona’ of myself. I love SW as I feel I can be honest and vulnerable, but in real life I find it hard to express my feelings.
Am I normal? Is everyone else out there being their honest selves, just telling people how they feel?

I think it's easier for myself here ,because I don't have the eye contact issue.
You also don't see condescending expressions or disapproval as you would in real time.
People have time to curate an answer instead of just blurting something out like they might in real life .
I think the key in real life may be letting that not affect us to a debilitating degree.
If you haven't heard of a woman named Marty Robinson you might want to check out her video about her technique "let them".
This is helped me some in my life when I practice it.
