Very good point. And it isn't just keeping up appearances to those on the outside but also those closest to us. That's what I said earlier about women struggling to keep their home after a divorce. They want to try and maintain everything the same "for the kids' sake" when the reality is that things aren't the same. The sooner you acknowledge that and move on, the better off you'll be. (And that isn't directed at the OP, just meant as a general comment).
