I believe we often make snap judgments when meeting people and then don't admit when more information shows we were wrong. I know I do!
Bipolar folks, ADD/ADHD folks, and such are quick thinkers. I am a bit quirky myself so I understand.
But there was a time when we humans lived moment to moment, never knowing when we would be attacked by wild animals or humans from other tribes and we had to make a quick decision on the limited data at hand. These so-called "mental illnesses" were what kept us and our tribe alive. We were the super-beings of the tribe. As I like to call us "Homo Nuevo", New Humans.
Now most folks don't need these abilities and so we are medicated until most all of us have become zombies. The message is clear. We are even obsessed with shows about the subject of zombies. They even eat brains. We are hard-wired in our brains to be this way.
So instead of simply medicating everyone to the point that they are living-dead and either give up and commit suicide or going berserk and killing someone or being put away in the loony bin like I do; why not find what our special abilities are good for and create special education tracks to help us find our new niche in modern society?
Hang in there my fellow super-beings. The "ONE Tribe" needs us. Help is on the way. It will just take a while. In the mean time, search for your own HEALTHY answers. Each one of you is special and loved by someone, maybe someone you don't even know is there thinking about you. "I" love you.
Namaste
