Although the concept of masking/camouflaging has been discussed since the end of the last century (e.g. by Lorna Wing in 1981), much of the research is still relatively new and we have a lot to learn! This video is definitely not an exhaustive list of the types of masking. These are just a few categories that really resonated with me and also seem to fit many anecdotes I’ve heard from the community.
If you’re masking another type of neurodivergence, these may apply to you too, but I only have the personal experience of masking as an autistic person. I’ve also been reading and researching autistic masking specifically. I don’t know how much of this would apply to other groups.
