I mean, the symptoms themselves make me different. But in general, I don’t feel any different than “normal” people.

that response doesn’t seem like your original post.
idk.

oh sorry i don’t know whether it makes sense?

should i edit something?

Another thing that makes me feel unique is i have a huge deal of empathy

Like it must come from my upbringing

Before mental illness i was always well liked and popular at school and in church liking being friendly to everyone i met. I was very sociable

I never had any problems until i wanted to leave church and then it blew my mind and the anxiety started paranoia everything

Kind of a nice feeling though.

Sometimes i feel more normal than normies. I have better control over my emotions in general because i had to become hyper aware of them
