RE: The psychology of self-concealment

in Reflections2 months ago

This reminds me a lot of one of my favorite actors, Robin Williams... He was always surrounded by many actor colleagues and a lot of fans, and it looked like he was never alone... But deep inside, he was... He was probably hiding his struggles and his real personality, caring more about others and making others laugh, forgetting about himself...

We are having more and more cases of self-concealment, especially among young people who show one thing in public, while hiding deep issues under the skin, behind the cameras...

Thank you so much for adding a extra layer of material with the Robin Williams example. I could find a better one to illustrate the real issue in the self-concealment... The distance that we make between our different "masks"... This thought takes me to a Series that had that pictured in the plot. I'll leave the link for the IMDB of the show that was named "Severance". The exercise that is made, lead us to a reality that in the beginning we might think that is perfect, that shows us a lot of break points.

Thanks for the TV series suggestion! I'm not watching TV too much, but I did check the trailer for season 1... Maybe I will give it a go! It's a very interesting concept, and I like those sci-fi/psychology movies/series... :)

Well, I can say to you that after the first two seasons, the third one was a little less interesting. But even so, a good saturday afternoon show.
