Early hominids: Every day I'm hustling.

Because early human's survival only consisted of being chill all the time and laid back and smoking bowls. Come on, people. Being alert and aware is not a sign of mental illness. We didn't survive as a species on the veldt plains by being as chill as possible about where the juiciest berries were and where the antelope with the most meat on its butt was by being relaxed all the time. 

Many times I have heard that hyper vigilance and abusive homes make for the best empaths. Or, dare I say it, psychics. To say my childhood was chaotic and violent is putting it mildly. 

To those who claim that they cured their social anxiety, you may have, but just like gay conversion camps don't "cure" gayness, you didn't "cure" your Mach 10 psychic ability that you probably have as a genetic trait. Nature vs. nurture, it doesn't matter. You're stuck with it, bub. 

Enjoy your self-loathing and denial and being in the closet if you detest who you are at your genetic core, but short of giving yourself a frontal lobotomy, you need to accept you are who you are, and that who you are is an empath. 

Psychic. 

Whatever.
