..............

Not everyone is supposed to be "normal" or "successful" (as defined by some "normal" people in society )

"Success"...

Depression can be a lot of different things.
Depression is frequently an obstacle to attaining the "success" many people envision.
Depression also can prevent one from feeling "successful" even when "success" in some form is attained.

This is good to know because the Skeezyks isn't normal or successful...

Unfortunately most humans live based on the principle of conformity to be accepted by others. Anyone different will be treated differently. But I don't care about conformity, because I am unique, and if people don't accept me for who I am, I am better off, even if it means to be alone completely the rest of my life.

What is being successful? Being rich, for example? I don't think that rich people or their excessive consumerism is good for the planet. They are not successful before my eyes

I used up too much of my energy to seem like I'm "normal".
I want to live in a society where authentic is normal. Though that's not a society anymore at least as we define it.
