Why Do Stupid People Not Realize They Are Stupid?

@PhoenixPhail Thank you for recognizing that. 😁

@JustGoneNow LOL I don't think you are.

@PhoenixPhail Different kinda of dumb and I definitely am in my way. Thank you, though. 🦋

@JustGoneNow In our own ways, I think we all are. 🤗

@PhoenixPhail Probably so. 🦋

@JustGoneNow Well, I KNOW I am. Sometimes it amazes me I'm still here.

@PhoenixPhail We’ve had high brow conversations but I’m way too impulsive in life and make hasty and borderline asinine decisions.

@JustGoneNow Has your being too impulsive and making hasty and borderline decisions been a life-long propensity? How have your decisions been asinine? I would bet other people wouldn't say that about you.

@PhoenixPhail Only since my mental illness. I’ve always been impulsive but artists typically are. Since my onset, I can’t always trust my eyes, ears, and even thoughts. It makes things very challenging.

@JustGoneNow Oh, I see. I can see how that could make things more challenging, but not necessarily make your decisions asinine ones. Does your condition have a name? (Tell me if I'm getting to nosy.)

@PhoenixPhail I don’t want to get into details, sorry, but I’ve been hospitalized for it. It’s pretty serious.

@JustGoneNow I'm sorry to hear that. I hope you are improving and will continue to do so. 🤞
Be well. And please be in touch if you'd care to talk. K?
