  I went crazy, then got bored of that after a few hundred years.

  But if everybody gets crazy, then crazy is normal and normal is crazy >
  
  What's with the if? Of course everyone is crazy now. You gotta be crazy not to grow your own food and to pay the government to exist. >
  
  You don’t pay them to exist. You pay them to not get locked away for the rest of your life, which is probably worse >
  
  you exist to pay them >
  
  You either become crazy enough to be a part of the madness or you get in control of your own choices and become crazy in everybody elses eyes. Crazy all the same. >
  
  That's just beautiful man . >

  Embracing the crazy, accepting it. We're literally surviving a chaotic mystery together and our only constants are suffering, death and change.
  It's crazy! Sanity is not overthinking uncertainty, get over it and find ways to be productive, fruitful, develop inwardly and out. Leave a good impression, a positive legacy before returning to the inevitable state of non-existence. >
  
  I think the more someone learns, the finer the line between enlightenment and insanity >
  
  my line is thinning a bit too fast >

  There’s no such thing as normal… There’s no such thing as normal… There’s no such thing as normal… There’s no such thing… >
  
  Everyone is normal until you get to know them. >
  
  I'm not even superficially normal. >

  That's a cop-out and a bit of a cliche. It's also pretty much a Joker quote from The Dark Knight Returns, iirc.
  Edit: I think it was The Killing Joke, actually. >
  
  I think its more about knowing WHEN to be crazy. Which comes with experience. Survival to me is about becoming wiser; not crazier. The truly crazy tend to burn out over the long haul. >

  Looking at your post history, I would recommend a little less crazy. >
  
  How would you describe me, based on my post history? >
  
  Respectfully, a young person that is intelligent but maybe has a lot of self doubt and anxiety.  Have you tried therapy? >
  
  For what reasons? Sounds like a bit of an angsty teen thing to say >
  
  You’re the one that seems young tbh… If you can’t truly understand what this alludes to, then that means you haven’t seen enough shit in your life. You’ll get it, eventually >
  
  OP post history...18 yrs old...a wee baby.
  This just seemed like a real edgelord type of post without a lot of thought put into it.   Most people are just normies with plenty of coping skills >
  
  The actual best way to get through life is to stop giving a fu**. >
  
  I love the quote about the yogi and the schizophrenic diving in the same water. One just remembered to bring the tank of oxygen. >
  
  I’m getting older and I haven’t lost my mind. I’ve gotten more level-headed with time, actually, so er… >
  
  We believe you … >
  
  I'm more about the acceptance route and avoidance route, depending on the situation or person. >
  
  No we're never gonna frontpage, unless we get a little lazy. >

  and then you become an adult and get some actual life experience >
  
  Life experiences can make you view the world this way. Opposite >

  Become???? Also, I’ve been told that I’m too crazy to be normal, but too normal to be crazy!! Where does that leave me??!! 🤷🏻‍♀️😂 >
  
  "It's so great having an addiction - in this life, you need something to take the edge off."
  This epiphany reminds me of Chainsaw Man and the general notion that the insane are most likely to survive.
