I am sort of a budding poet, dancer and artist among other things. I get suffocated in crowds, i prefer being alone although it makes me a little lonely. I get depressed easily, i tend to look at things from a different perspective, and i'm only 16 so most ppl think i'm most definitely crazy! I don't discuss the same things as most teenagers.. I talk about serious issues. I am not too fond of pop culture, phones, make up.. Instead i like philosophy, art, classical music, art house cinema, and dark films. Most ppl label me as 'depressed', 'anti social' 'very mature'.. Bla bla bla. At first like the others who know me a little i thought it had something to do with my problematic childhood but then when i think about my contemporaries i realize some of them are way too shallow and silly. They are defined by their outfits and footwear and boyfriends and they hardly understand what i write. So i really don't regret being different :) Wow same here.

I too was described as being anti-social because I'm not good in big groups, or I never used to be anyway. But I am in no way like thugs who hang around street corners being abusive and violent and damaging property, and are also very social indeed. <br /> <br /> Vandals or artists? Quite obviously vandals, sometimes artists, but I'm sure people can be encouraged to be expressive without breaking the law and ruining property. I don't like my house to be facing a wall that says SPUNK on it while others are querying over a hidden artist trying to express themselves, however pretty the colours and font may look lmao!

I too am accused of being 'anti-social', when all the noise around me takes away my peace and clear thinking. I'm okay in small groups and one on one, but large social gatherings make me crazy. I'd rather be writing or listening to music anyday, then be in a huge setting with inaudible chattering. At times, I wish I were 'normal', but I need to come to terms with myself and go with the flow of who God intended me to be. Otherwise, I despise myself and get migranes. I need to stop resisting my gifts and peace, and just be 'normal' for my personality type. I have been battling with being ‘normal’ my whole life.

And isn't it lovely being a litle more quixotic (at least it rhymes with psychotic)than so many other folk? If someone wants you to be more sociable I wonder what’s in it for them?
