“I used to think I was the strangest person in the world
but then I thought, there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do

well, I hope that if you are out there you read this and know that yes, it’s true I’m here, and I’m just as strange as you.”
