I want to be one of those normal people.
I know what you’re thinking, ‘there’s no such thing as normal.’
There are people out there though, that don’t hesitate to walk out the door to go to a store. There are people that don’t fantasize about death. There are people who don’t have trauma or flashbacks and nightmares about what others have done to them.
I want to be one of those people that wasn’t diagnosed with a major depressive disorder at 17.
I want to be one of those people that didn’t have to try several medications just for them all to fail.
I want to be one of those people that doesn’t have an anxiety disorder, and has a hard time just leaving the house.
I want to be one of those people that didn’t have to go to a therapist, just to add PTSD to the list of mental disorders.
I want to feel like a person again, instead of a number of things wrong with me, that affect my day to day life.
Please. Just let me be..
