I rather be friends with a mentally unstable off their rockers person

Than someone sane who doesn't respect simple boundaries ,such as not wanting to argue or needing rest atm before doing something.

Outside of the work environment , I like to shedule arguments if I must have them. You can't just randomly expect me to engage it.

Honestly, THIS. I prefer like-minded people who have had struggles. As long as a person has insight and understanding of themselves and aren’t in free-fall harming other or themselves with no self-awareness I’m fine with them :)

There is common-group and empathy :)

“Happy” people with zero-struggles are hard to relate to. They go through life like a funfair and can act judgmental or avoidant if they meet those of us who have battled our minds and are still here <3

I’m autistic, ADHD & have mental health struggles as well as OCD. If I met a mentally fine neurotypical person, I doubt they’d find me compatible - and if I’m honest, I wouldn’t find them compatible either masking and burning out would make me walk on eggshells and feel insecure and self-conscious 😞
