Even if certain individuals are narcissists, even if some people are sociopaths, it doesn’t matter to what I’m doing. Even if I go days without anyone reading my work, it doesn’t matter. I continue to work despite the “even if” scenarios. I don’t need your acceptance or approval to bust a move within a sentence.…

I remember being more excited for this movie’s release than any other movie I can think of. At the time, I was in the beginning stages of my new reality. I was also more aware of my mood disorder, even though I still had yet to figure out what mental illnesses I had been dealt.…
