If you have to change masks for every room, you’ll forget which face is yours.

STILLNESS

WHAT THIS MEANS

Adjusting a little for different rooms is normal and mostly kind. The cost shows up when the adjustments get large and constant, because then every version needs maintaining, and tracking which one goes where leaves nothing left over for knowing what you actually think. People in that position often describe feeling fine and empty at the same time. Nothing is wrong exactly; there is just nobody home underneath the switching.

Find one room where you drop all of it, one person or one place with no performance required. Start there rather than trying to be consistent everywhere at once.
