Honestly, it is lonely.
It feels like you put zero effort into everything, but everyone keeps praising you. You're waiting for someone to step in and say "what a joke!" But it never happens, people just get angry at the smaller inconsequential stuff, and at the end of the day, no one really gets what you were trying to communicate, so you end up feeling like a clown or a circus elephant. You just don't feel real.
