Ever feel so goddamn DIFFERENT that you belonged in Professor X’s School for Gifted Youngsters?
Yeah, that was me — a neurodivergent kid before anyone coined the term (Remember that the neurodiversity mouvement only gained prominence in the early 2000s).
I hit the age of reason around 4, forced to shed puppy innocence to become my mom’s sole confidant for her undiagnosed depression (we’d later confirm it as bipolarity, after years of medical errance).
An abnormally ACCELERATED maturity ignited as a coping, survival reflex for the harrowing household chaos.
The hypersensitive kid who kicked philosophical ass while other toddlers zoned out to Dora the Explorer and Pokémon. The loner empath who convinced his schoolmates he had Shaolin superpowers just by karate-chopping the air.
