I don’t know either, but from context clues I think it’s what happens when you find out masking is harmful to you, and you try to stop it. Some people do this by losing social skills and regressing into a less social person. Probably also other things but I’m no expert.
If I’m not wrong it also refers to when you develop skills that are 100% bound to a mask that you use for a specific place or environment (for example at work), but then when you unmask, or when you don’t “wear” that mask for a long time and lose connection with it, you also lose access to those skills.
It sucks so much.
Oh boy, I’m so excited
