I'm the craziest person I know, but oddly, I need to be surrounded by sanity in order to function. I do get attracted to other crazy people, especially insane geniuses -- but they're bad for me. 😅

@SW-User Interesting. I’m trying to be the normal one these days, but I need the crazy people around me so I don’t get bored. I’m the worst bad influence I know, so I’m always on the hunt for my kind.

@Graylight I think I know what you mean, but when I say *crazy*, I'm referring to mental illness. I have Bipolar I, and in order to stay well and stable and grounded, I need as much normalcy (whatever that is haha) as I can get.

@SW-User PTSD/SUD/ADHD. I feel you. Normalcy is hard.

@Graylight Yep. I also have CPTSD from multiple traumas. I can get triggered by the most seemingly innocent things. 🤕

@SW-User I’m bipolar I sort of let myself be chaotic.
