I watched the season premiere of House, MD last night. He was in a mental institution, and the entire two-hour episode felt like a pointed message at me:
YOU ARE FUCKED UP.
YOU SHOULD BE INSTITUTIONALIZED.
YOU DO NOT BELONG IN NORMAL SOCIETY.
YOU ARE A FAILURE AT LIFE.
House suffers from a problem that I too struggle with (no, not drug addiction): lack of happiness. We do not know what happiness means, or how to obtain it. What is happiness?
Maybe it's different for everyone. But that doesn't help me, because that means no one else can tell me what will make me happy. And I don't know how to figure it out alone.
I am fucked up.
I should be institutionalized.
I do not belong in normal society.
I am a failure at life.
