I think that people wear masks to hide their true selves. I think they do this because they are afraid of what people will think of them. They don't want to be made of, so they make something up and try to fit in. They only like the things they do to be popular. I wear a mask around my parents, teachers, and therapists. My mask is always doing what I'm

people wear mask because thats how the world is these days. If you don't fit in you're gonna more than likely get bullied so they hide behind what they think is cool and they find a group of friends that don't actually get them. And they but the biggest reason they do it is because they are afraid. That is why most people were mask.

i have never been this way towards anyone or anything.

I think people wear mask because they don't want people to see there true colors and they try and act like someone there not. There are millions of people in this world that's a million and much more different personalities. Some people may be even hurt and they where a mask maybe because there good at covering up there hurtful emotions and they do better in life with a mask on. The emotions that I really feel aren't being seen by others because I tend to do better with a mask on my face. My way to get throigh the day is not take my mask off leave it on and take it off when yoiur ready to deal with what your emotions really are.

Yes, I have shown my real side and it just was too much for me and I didn't know how to handle who I really am. Now I am doing a little bit better but when I do show my true side and I see that there is a mistake I instantly try and put my mask back on and I keep it on .

My one buddy is fake I know he tries to be like me . He would dress like me and talk like me. I would try to be like someone that I wasn't in 5th grade. I was trying to be like my buddy Ben he was more like a rude person in general. When I would try to be like my buddy I knew that really was not me. I knew that I was a much more different person and that I was definitely hiding myself in a mask at that time.

I honestly think people wear mask because they can be very hurt or angry or very scared of what this society would think of them.

1I think people wear masks to hide their true feelings because they are insecure about how others see them. I think they are afraid to show people their true selves because they think people will see them different and they just want to fit in and not be different from society. A lot of girls wear make up to cover up certain things they don't like about themselves because they feel like they aint pretty. A time I concealed my feelings was when I was having problems at home and thought I was going to have to move away from my friends. I concealed my feelings because I didn't want people to know what was happening.

I think people wear masks because of insecurities. A lot of times people are afraid of being judged or criticized. I also think people wear masks to fit in because society demands perfection . Some people also wear masks to hide their emotions . Some people might think it make them weak or embarassed if they show their feelings.

Yes, I conceal my feelings all the time , mostly when it comes to personal stuff. I don't like to show my feelings because it makes me feel embaerresd .

I think people wear masks because of their insecurities. I know I wear makeup to cover up the things im insecure about. I don't like how I look sometimes. I think people also wear masks because they want to hide what they feel. I fake a smile almost everyday. Sometimes I get upset and people ask what's wrong and I say nothing. I think that's kinda like wearing a mask

People wear masks because they want to be someone else and try to be someone who they can't be, you can only be one person, that it yourself and no one else. People wear masks because they hate the way dress or look. People have been faking a lot of things that they try to be, but they never can be someone else because they can only be them self and no one else, Trying to be someone else is hard to do because they think the person is so perfect, but in reality, no one is perfect. I used to wear a mask back then, I had a horrible time when it happened, that is when I decided to take that mask off and be myself.

Sometimes people are fake because they're afraid that people won't like the real them. I have to be concealed when i'm with my mom. She doesn't really like and or respect my life choices. So therefore I can't really talk to her about anything I like. Because every time I do, it just feels like she gets more and more disappointed in me.

I think people were masks to cover up what they are really feeling about something.also i think people were masks because they do not want people see that they are hurting.another reason why i think people were masks is because they are afraid what people will really think of them .another reason why people were masks are because they are afraid to have to trust people again if someone hurt them in the past.the last reason why i think people were masks is because they are afraid that someone will not like them for who they are.i do not do that.

I think people wear masks because they want to hide their emotions. They also wear them for when they do theater shows. They also wear them to be themselves. They wear them to show their emotions. They also think that if they don't wear a mask then they would treat them different.

People wear masks maybe because like me are afraid to show others their emotions. I conceal my feelings when someone close to me upsets me. I try not show any real feelings to anyone. If I do then your super lucky to have seen me in a weakened state of emotions.
