When you have a lot of fake selves, most of the time it's because you haven't had parents around so you try to build characters to protect yourself.
The real self is who you are when you're at home, when you're comfortable, and the false self is what you're pretending - and the reason you pretend is because you want to create a character for the surroundings you're within.
Some people will never be able to get their real self, but that's fine, because their fake self is also part of them.
