yeah sometimes

Yes, I think we all do at one point or another.
-
people can read me like a book... i can run, but i cant hide
-
no, i hide my sadness behind hate
-
No. I hide my sadness behind my laughs. I don't want to smile, if I don't feel like it. It always comes out awkward. But laughter can be fun.
-
Don't we all. I thought that was just the way we all act.
-
yes...but it makes me feel better anyway...so that's okay isn't it?
-
Every day of my life. I've forgotten what it's like to be happy. And don't give me that "Don't worry, be happy" crap. I have very good reasons for never being truly happy.
-
Everyday. It's exhausting.
-
It'sd not always easy, but I try.
-
yes..nobody understands a thing.. a smiles a good act
-
i used to cuz there was still something to smile about but now the feling just went away and ppl can c my sadness though me even when i dont think that im showing it like when im thinking,but then again 99% of the time my thoughts are depressive:(
-
to people I don't know, like at a grocery store, or the bank..
-
Every day. I think everyone does these days
-
I did. Until I found the right medication.
-
Always
-
I hold my breath as this life starts to take its toll I hide behind a smile as this perfect plan unfolds
-
all the time. excpet today im not, cos im really fed up. i think pretending im ok in front of people just makes me feel even worse when im alone :(

Most of the time yes...it is quite hard to be 70 and have noone anywhere close, children who are too busy in their lives to care about your well being and never call and don't want to or have time to talk to me when I call...I have quit calling...what use is it. I am single and have no family; only a few friends where I live. I spend much of my time here on AB or reading books and researching here on the internet. When I answer questions here it is from much reading...and experiances of life.... And yes, I do hide my sadness and even the tears of it with fake smiles all the time...If I died today only those around me would ever know...it is sad to get old isn't it...

All too often
