Do you really want to be your true self?
Start by wearing a mask or a costume.
Wearing a mask or a costume allows you to have an explicit and direct experience of what it means not to be yourself.
This can be very useful because in this way you can better understand when you are not yourself and wear a mask and costume, even if you do not seem to wear a mask and a costume.
There are explicit masks and costumes, which you can clearly recognize in yourself and in others, because they are part of theatre, Carnival, fiction.
There are also hidden masks and costumes, which you are not able to recognize because it is not at all clear that these are roles, masks, theater, fiction. You forgot when you chose to play those roles, and then you confuse the roles with yourself.
The most honest masks and costumes are the obvious, explicit ones that you can choose to wear and then let go. Depraved masks, on the other hand, do not give you the possibility of choice, they take possession of your body, they remain on you for life, unless you recover your original ability to distinguish between who you really are and the mask you wear.
So to understand the above, start wearing a costume by choice, aware that it is a costume, which you can wear and remove when you want.
