How often do you misrepresent yourself online?

I asked a related question about how often you lie, on a daily basis, but I think this is more apropos for today's general aesthetic.

I'm more my real self online than I am in the real world.

I would like to hear more about how and why that is, for you.

I can actually speak my mind through text than I can verbally. I become mute in most situations IRL because being physically around people gives me anxiety.

I know I kinda just spread my brains out onto Internet and it isn't pretty but it gets the dopamine going and keeps me on the treaddsmill
