There's a Bug In My Brain
Hi there,
There's a bug in my brain.
I don't know what it's name is, but I'm pretty positive that it's there.
Its name is probably ADD, ASD, or OCD.
Maybe all three of them are living up there. Who knows.
It definitely feels like a party sometimes.
It isn't all bad though.
Sometimes it's nice having a companion living up there. They help me see things from a different perspective and really focus on getting something done.
But then sometimes they get super interested in text editors. And they make interacting with other humans a bit difficult most times.
So I don't know.
Part of me would like to know their name. Knowing its name might give me some more power over it.
But, living in America, learning its name doesn't seem like a worthwhile investment of my time and resources.
It feels bad (likely) spending a bunch of money for someone to tell me that there's a bug in my brain and its name is likely XYZ.
I already know that. Why do I need someone else's opinion to tell me what I already know?
This bug has been with me all my life. It's a part of me. Knowing its name would be nice, but there isn't anything I'd really do with that information. Taking a drug that makes my brain in habitable to bugs doesn't really seem like something I want to do.
These bugs are a part of me.
I'm not sure I would be me if they were gone...
So, as much trouble that they cause sometimes, I don't want to live without them.
Thanks Void for letting me be me, bugs and all.
