An emotional mask is how someone (usually with mental problems such as anxiety, depression, etc) protects and/ or hides certain emotions from people. Sometimes they can seem to be someone entirely different. Tearing away a person’s emotional mask/s can cause a range of problems from said person being upset with you for a week or two, and can get as worse as someone completely detaching themselves from you entirely.

An emotion mask is something referenced my Spade while taking about reading people better, as described Spade said "Everyone wears a mask, the mask they chose will affect the rest of their life, some people get lucky and pick a good one, others aren't as fortunate. Not all masks are unintentional, some people choose one to hide their real feelings. Although it is possible to crack an emotion mask it's very hard, only the owner of the mask can choose to take it off"
