I guess it’s a bit different. People can get along. But will I ever do the same?
What makes one sane? A bunch of standardised tests for differentiated individuals?
Disorganised and depressed thoughts for the last 4 years. And I’m not even 18.
Maybe I just had a rough day. But, I’ll never be able to talk to y’all the same way.
Sorry for wasting your time. I just felt the need to turn to someone/something. Cause I have a bad tendency to turn to self abuse when I feel low or disappointed or mad at myself.

I can’t answer your question ‘what makes one sane?’ Because I believe there is no definition of sane, meaning, no answer. Not sure if a rough day has a four year background, but yeah, the day was rough. Just have to weild it into strength for now. What were the events of the day? How can you acknowledge it in a way in which it can somehow inform you of the future? Prepare you? Now it’s not all magical, but it sure as hell is better then nothing.
Sane = ability to adapt to the freakishly weird nature of modern civilization, and the ability to cope with the social/economic demands of it without self-destructing from frustration/anger/self-loathing at being different from everyone else, like everyone else/mindless rage at how mindless everything is/etc..
But not falling into that whacky category of well-adjusted people doesn’t mean you’re broken or bad because it’s almost entirely circumstantial. Well-adjusted parents have kids, and pass on their secret-voodoo-knowledge of how to be well-adjusted to their kids, and maladjusted parents have kids and pass on their own maladjustment on to their kids. It’s tricky figuring out how to escape that stupid generational cycle, but it’s by no means impossible. Well-adjusted families sometimes produce horribly dysfunctional children just as maladjusted families sometimes produce well-adjusted children. It’s all about what each person chooses to do with the hand they’re dealt.
im allergic to cheese so thankfully there was none in this post! good call on coming to this place rather than turning the flame or blade or knuckles on yourself! seriously good on you for that–not many people have that self awareness and wherewithal to discern a practical plan to deal with unsettling emotions and thoughts. U need to see that quality and strength in yourself and acknowledge that its indeed there.
Insanity? Sanity? Merely words us mere mortals stamp on people or things to feel more comfortable and in control of our situations and people. I say let people say what they want. At the end of the day you’re the master of your own domain and name and you say what labels(if any) stick. You and only you make that call and really you get to make your own definitions as well. Keep on pluggin away and posting!
