insomnia

any respectable person would be sleeping right now, possibly dreaming of pink cows floating through a field of orange cars? i don’t often remember dreaming…so it’s probably a bad example. i hesitate to post what is in my head because it feels like i’d be spewing muck forth…without a purpose. so i’ll pose some questions that i may consider at a later date…

  1. is it easier to not be accountable to someone with a mental illlness?
  2. is it too hard to be friends with someone who has a mental illness?
  3. can a person be too sensitive? if so, what does that look like?

i’m using the following definition for mental illness: mental illness refers collectively to all diagnosable mental health problems that become “clinical,” that is where a degree of professional intervention and treatment is required.

feel free to dialogue in the comments. i’d be interested in your opinions.
