Of course the line between pretending and believing is a thin one.

This is why compartmentalization and dissociation have become skills ._.

But some friends of mine have described it as a higher stakes form of LARPing.

Who you are at work is your character. Your character can believe things that you never would.
Such as, being a half-elf dual-class ranger/sorcerer and knowing how to fight with two swords while hurling magic missiles.
Alternatively, being a "libertarian conservative" who believes guns deserve more rights than people >_<

Other friends of mine in the furry fandom frame it like their various collections of furry critters -- just another 'sona.
Not a fursona, but a WORK-SONA.
