so since theres no cure for insanity, you science people need to do us all a favor and create a virus that turns all the normal folk crazy. think of the advantages! everyone would understand
when you refuse to go into a crowded room, people wont give you the "your such a pain in the ass look"
you wont overhear folks talking about depression saying, people are so lazy they want to pop a happy pill rather than make their life more meaningful, they take the easy way out. like there's an easy way out of depression!!!
and when your sad, folks wont try to cheer you up, cause thats so irritating, theyd know and just let you go through it
people would know how you feel and wouldnt expect you to smile or look up or to pretend
and you wouldnt have to hide your medicine when nosy family members come over the advantages are endless

My brain went straight to Jonathan Swift and I thought this was going to be about eating children.

But I think your idea's better. Haha.

thats exactly what i was thinking of when i wrote it, i couldnt think of a way to include eating children though! population control so its not too crowded for social phobics? i think extroversion genes should be identified too, so we can abort extroverted fetuses. its not murder, its terminating a pregnancy, perfectly moral! there! its included

I wouldn't suggest anything quite as drastic as that but I do crave a level of understanding that transcends the usual sympathy/pity/resentment/disgust orientated responses that you encounter from most people.

Most people are crazy, we are the normal ones. Apparently, mental illness makes you more "normal", intelligent and understanding than everyone else.
