Yeppers, Corey, definitely! I have been describing my weird, neuro-divergent brain for years by telling people I have more fun with myself in my own head than I do anywhere else. Not really true during the emotional valleys but the view from the peaks are spectacular 😎
As the Bloggess (Jenny Lawson, I recommend "Let's Pretend This Never Happened") would say -- DEPRESSION LIES. It ain't fair that we are caught between two sets of squabbling brain chemicals but ... what's fair? I have to admit that I've been -- well, maybe not happier, but more tranquil person once I decided that nothing was ever fair.
But I remain in favor of happiness. Have some. Have lots and then take another helping (chew slowly, savor the flavor!)
My brain is often a liar. And so I greatly appreciate your description of this. Some days I feel like I can do anything, others that I can do nothing right, and I am so tired this week. I needed this one.
Corey, thank you! You have no idea how much I needed to read this this morning. My brain has been on one lately and I’m tired of it. My brain is an absolute withholding piece of shit lately and it really does help to know that I’m not alone in that. Thanks, man. Preciate ya.

I hope today is a good day for you.
Another wee bit of wisdom to start the day! I appreciate you! Have a good weekend!
