I have Hidden_1 to credit for this post because he got me thinking about what is to follow. In my teenage years, I have been labeled as anti-social and bullied. I wonder if those accusations have taken on a truth of their own. Generally, yes, I am a little anti-social. And no, I don't give a whit that I feel this way. The neurotypical world has so marginalized me that I don't like engaging in it. When I do have a need for socialization, I seek out an anonymous place where I can get it and that is enough.
So I've been told enough times that I am anti-social that I've begun to believe it. Up until today, I'd get really defensive about it. Today, I realized that rather than get defensive, I might as well embrace it! The folks that live off the grid do so I will too. Hell yes, I am anti-social and I am fine with that. If someone wants to call that a disorder, let them. To me, it's perfectly fine. To me insanity is the rat race of the neurotypical world.
