When I lose my mask, I tend to speak as if I'm "reading from a book" (as a friend had confusingly mentioned, not in an offensive manner). Some people take offense to it, for some reason assuming I'm constantly providing thinly veiled insults...

Sometimes it's just easier to mask. Sometimes it's near impossible to keep up the act. I've noticed my ability to mask has been fading more the older I get, yet I'm unsure if this is expected of the condition.
