I really struggle with this. I work in wealth management, I make ok money for my position, but it is slightly below market and I am trying to move up. I can absolutely do the work, and everyone knows that, but I genuinely struggle with talking to people at work. It makes me very nervous, and I feel like there is note I have to hit between real personable me and corporate button up me. I might just also be an asshole by accident? I feel isolated and this creates a feedback loop that makes me feel more rejected by the environment. I fear it is started to affect my mental a bit, because I am not sure where I would go where I didn’t have this problem, but the masking is so fucking exhausting. Any input would be appreciated. submitted by /u/Big_Snail76
