Me Against The World. It wouldn't be fair otherwise!

Although I am still physically sick, (which really tears me down) I feel mentally at my best, like I can take on the world. Even my psychosis is at bay.
At times like this, which are exceedingly rare, I do what I can to help others. Often I get into politics. Politics that try to truly help overcome some of the BS in today's society. Lobbying for fair practices for the mentally ill is one such area.

I won't go into details, but I will say that governments around the world have open files on me as being a "mentally ill social/political activist". I have never been afraid to go right to the top in order to get things done, be it the Government or private institutions or the public in general. Of course you usually have to do all three to see any results at all.

Does anyone else do things this way, or is just me?
Does doing this just prove I am mentally ill?

I think it's good to see that you have an "I can do anything" attitude. It makes it easier to get through the day. I also hope that your physical illness gets better very soon!

Hello Ripose. Well, for different reasons I've always felt it me against the world. I'm not brave enough or knowledgable enough to take my point to the top of the tree(s) because I have no faith in myself. I hope that you do get your phyical wellness and your mental wellness together very soon, you sound as though you could conquer the world!!!!!!

I wish I was like this all the time but it comes and goes. What is interesting is that you usually get a response faster by going to the top than you would by asking the person who is "supposed to know" how to answer your questions.

I know most people won't even believe the original post but this first started years ago when I was getting really ticked off trying to find information about Nikola Tesla's work. Much of it was classified so I went directly to the FBI and requested any and all information they had. It took several attempts but eventually they sent me a huge stack of paper of Tesla's work. The papers had been so heavily redacted (words blacked out) that it was basically useless, but I did get what I wanted in the end.
Ever since then I have always gone to the top very early in my search for information and getting things done.

So go for it everyone!
You never know what you can accomplish!
