Synonym for "isn't truly happy with who he is"?

What would be an appropriate, more condensed way to say "isn't truly happy with who he is" without having the negative in the sentence? This sentence is part of an essay where I discuss how a character tries to escape from reality and makes himself seem better than he really is.

Thank you
