Ahem. I'm not sure coffee accounts for all that.
Do you have outside eyes on you, helping you see if you're going too far sometimes? We can all use some perspective now and then
Because that was a pretty distant shore.
yeah, true. mental illness accounts for more most likely.
having outside eyes on me is an interesting thought. i have a caring support network that i talk to regularly, family members and a psychologist, to help keep me rooted on earth most of the time, if that's what you meant by the question. the question could also be interpreted as being monitored or surveilled, like by police or the like, which insofar as i know, no more than the average citizen, no less.
my hyperbole can be too hyperbole. the term adynaton comes to mind. idk if it's from bipolar or adhd, like mania or hyperfocusing, or maybe artificial colors and lead paint or simply part of my personality or genetics. sometimes the imagination runs free, albeit disjointed at times.
I just meant family, friends, a non-threatening person who was keeping things in check when you spin off a little bit too far.
It's a wild world, but sometimes not THAT wild.
