How far should I withdraw to stay safe?
Having been the victim of a major workplace conspiracy, a minor workplace conspiracy and a financially crippling conspiracy by so called friends, I have had to change my outward personality. I don't share thoughts or feelings, unless I think someone really needs to hear them. I don't look around me unless I have to. I am often, and quite deliberately, overtly aggressive. Funnily enough I feel I am more productive this way and more able to help people genuinely in need. I know I am safer.
I don't sleep well, but I cry a lot less than I used to. I can barely remember what happiness is, but I rarely feel intensely sad.
Does anyone know of an alternative to living like this, when you really are unsafe to expose yourself as a real person?
