The author’s reflection on feeling trapped by formality and fear reveals a deep struggle with authenticity and vulnerability. Their hesitation to express freely stems from societal expectations and personal insecurities, creating an emotional conflict between identity and expression. This inner tension highlights how rigid styles can stifle individuality. Writing, in this sense, becomes both a shield and a confession. I can deeply relate to this challenge much like when students ask to help me write my case study, seeking clarity while battling self-doubt and structure.
