When you are not normal, few things are more exhausting than trying to pretend that you are. After decades of trying, I rarely make the effort anymore. The people that know me best understand.
Struggling every day to "get better" and being disappointed every day because I'm not, and never will be "better." Every day a new failure. If all our critics could just for one moment see life from our perspective they'd know that on our bad days it takes all we've got just to function.
