Is it normal i am not distressed by my mental illness?
I have noticed a lot of people diagnosed with mental illness complain a lot and use it as a reason they are unhappy.
I have been diagnosed with various mental disorders and I don't see it as a problem.
In fact I am more creative because of it and I like my eccentricities.
I am quite happy with myself but I see the burden as society does not always react well to how I act, although I see that as their problem.
How come some people who are labled as mentally ill constantly complain and have low self esteem? I am quite happy with how I am. I don't even like the term mental illness because it implies there are germs in my brain, but I am just a strange person who doesn't quite match societies demands, which I find unnecessary.
