On atypical forms of sanity, and medication:

[azurelunatic]

"It's not fun to look at a little bottle or two and think "this is my sanity". But it's not, really. It's just something that enables you to function fully in a culture that's forgotten what to do with folks like us. One of these days they'll remember--or we'll figure it out and make them take us seriously as we are, and not as they think we should be."

I'd like to figure it out soon, please. Not all of this hiding in my room is due to the illness.
