A very good friend of mine, who happens to suffer with schizophrenia, often tells me "You'd have to be crazy not to be a little crazy."
I'm an Aspie. I have depression, insomnia, and a mild case of OCD. The older I get the smaller my filter and I LOVE IT!!! I've never been crazier or more free. I have suffered the loss of friends and family in death; I've lost the bulk of my shit because I had to choose between paying for a storage unit or fixing my car. I've collected cans so I could buy food. These are the things that prompt me to be an open book about all of my imperfections in the hopes of helping others.
