10. I make a good people helper for psych patients because I "get it".
9. I think a lot, seems most people don't, therefore, I am more likely to understand the jokes on NPR.
8. I don't fall apart when I break a nail, or skin my knee. I have a clue what real problems are.
7. When my pals are in trouble, I am there for them. I'm not afraid to listen to problems involving abuse, trauma, psychoses, or broken finger nails. I can handle it.
6. I stand up for those who can't help themselves because I been there and it sucks.
5. Being nuts made me cling to my spirituality for strength, and made me a much better person.
4. I love "bag ladies" - they remind me of my mom. I want to bring them all home.
3. I occasionally get to look at my hotty T.
2. Emotional pain hurts, yuppers, it surely does, but it's like pinching youself after a bad dream...I KNOW I'm alive.
1. I get to meet lovely Babblers.
