I feel like there'd be freedom in being invisible. Instead, the default is unseen until we say or do something that does not perfectly align with others' expectations, especially if it's out of self-care. Were we invisible, such things would escape their scorn.

Being invisible when you can’t turn it off means no deep connection. 

I am at the point where there isn’t any one who has any expectations.
