The ‘as-if’ person faces a conundrum to hide or expose the truth of who they are. Feelings of loss, curtailment, and alienation are prevalent yet concealed with glitzy ego, persona/imposter images. Intimacy and emotional presence are difficult. Those living ‘as-if’ are estranged from their true selves, hiding the shadow at the cost of their desires. There is a haunting sense of a lack of authenticity. Existence is singular. Very possibly we know these struggles as they are part of us.
