I feel inhuman

Like I don’t experience, feel, say, or think what other humans do.

You can never be sure @Bluey2. We are all human.

You seem pretty grounded to me. I wouldn’t even know you had a form of MI if I met you on another web forum.

It’s like this priest I know says: I make a pretty bad insane person.

It’s mostly practice that I don’t come off as unbalanced. I assure you there are several screws loose.

Or perhaps your self-confidence overrides/masks your affliction to others who don’t know you as well. This is a good thing.

I appear normal when med compliant. At least I think I do.

“Don’t experience, think or say what others do”? Yes I relate absolutely, yet I feel the opposite, I feel sometimes more human than those around me. After the events of the past several years added up to what I can remember of my mid 20’s this leaves me feeling like I have no idea what other’s experience is in life or in their own mind which is scary because I then look back on the few I’ve been close to or the fewer who’ve been as kind in kind to my kindnes and I just wonder.

It’s funny, I remember sitting in my now deceased psychologists office at 21 telling him I wasn’t sure I was experiencing the same thing everyone else was and I remember him saying “You may not be!”

Yet, I feel more empathic, more kind and more honest than most people around me, leaving me feeling vulnerable and naive.

I don’t think like most humans do either. I’m very offbeat. So I don’t even say anything. Its kinda sad though. My boyfriend even called me a robot. sigh life.
