Funny how people used to just shake their heads at over the top acts I used to do, but decades later when I mention the possible cause of me doing those things was because of being bipolar...they blurt out 'no you're not' as if acting the way I did came without strings attached!
My elders thought I should feel shame about what I did, but that wasn't happening. I was going the other way: the crazier the stunts I pulled, the more I was getting laid. That in its silly surface way, was my being accepted I thought. I was encouraged to misbehave...and misbehave I did.
So I didn't really give a hoot back then because my weirdness was working for me. Now that I'm older my craziness has morphed into fond memories my friends and I relive time and again, and I have -0- concern for those who don't like it...then or now.
