Perhaps those of us with "disorders" are the ones most blessed because we know we have issues we need to work on. All those normal people out there are just wandering around thinking they are A-OK when we know they are not. I would challenge anyone I know to go through the list of forums here and not find someplace where they would fit in. But, we all have to function in the real world and the bottom line is that some of us have a really, really hard time with that.
well I don't listen to many statistics tbh but all in all I dont' disagree with this reply. whether or not those falling in the statistical norm are normal or not. I question that

and your statement that those with "disorders" could be blessed since we are motivated to change and fix ourselves, i totally agree.

and I've said something similar to the effect that there are those that go through life with a diagnosis and those that go through life basically thinking they are fine. Both possibly have some challenges, but only one is aware of his.
