Hi, sweetcakes, it's good to see you again. During the darkest parts of my life, I have found that fake smiles and false pretenses allowed me to actually move about among other people and save my sanity. If not for the 'real' responses of smiling and happy greetings that my fake face brought out, I would probably have succumbed to the pain. They also helped a lot in keeping my son from seeing how sad and upset I was. By protecting him from the worst of it, I was able to help him, and he was able to help me through that part of our life.

When I fake smile, I'm thinking that my eyes are not lit up the right way, and am wondering why I am smiling if I don't feel like smiling, which is why I hardly ever fake smile.
