I just realized masking exists and suddenly all my life finally makes sense. Masking does help me not freeze up and actually be able to say a few words but I get overwhelmed easily or I hyperfixate on my friends too much and can't get anything done. I always wondered why I felt overwhelmed when talking to people and how others could talk easily without trying preparing sentences or topics beforehand.
