I always considered myself 'normal', but now years down the line - with depression, anxiety and then ptsd, I decided I could no longer be classed as such. The fact is - it is how OTHERS perceive you. I have changed, my brain was warped by a person, (if not 2) with a personality disorder. But I'm past that. I have recovered. So, to get my head around my 'abnormal brain function' I keep telling people - It's because of my mental problem that I behave 'abnormally'. So now that is wrong! Everythnig I do or say is WRONG.
Sometimes you just can't win. Now I'm attention seeking, along with being jealous, Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh:confused:

Well, who is to say you are not "normal". Do you feel "normal" for who you are?? I think that word is so very subjective. What may be "normal" for one person would not be "normal" for the next. Of course, I have no idea of what your prior situation is to your feeling and thinking this way, I am usually found on the Children's Health board. I think if we were all to conform to societies view of "normal" we would be pretty messed up people. Originality is awesome, and for anyone to feel inadequate for being UNIQUELY who they are is detrimental. Stay strong and don't let societies or other people's view of who you should be get you down. ;)
