Although self-expression is natural, it is made more difficult for authentic people because of...

1) Societal Norms

In this world, the level of appreciation shown for a form of self-expression is often dependent on how people view that individual. And when they don't "fit the mold", the rejection can make them question their own validity.

2) Jealousy

When someone struggling with their own self-expression comes across a person confident in theirs it can bring out their insecurities.

This insecurity can manifest itself in different ways (e.g. sabotage) and can make it more difficult for that individual to continue expressing themself.

3) Performance-Based Systems

When performance and results are prioritised and rewarded by a system that also downplays the importance of genuine self-expression, creative individuals who know how to maximise their abilities tend to suffer the most.
