Serious question, do you actually tell people the truth at 2am or just the version that sounds good?

I sat up until 2am last Tuesday with my buddy Marcus on my porch in Sacramento, and I unloaded stuff I have not said out loud in 3 years, like how I almost walked away from the business when we had just $800 in the account back in 2021. Here is the thing though, once I started talking I caught myself softening the ugly parts so I would not sound like a mess, and that felt worse than staying quiet. Does anyone else notice they do the same thing, or is it just me because I am too tired to tell the real version from the cleaned up one?
