Ben! (Boo!)I think of the great JD Salinger quote from his recurring character Seymour Glass:“I'm a kind of paranoiac in reverse. I suspect people of plotting to make me happy.”Whenever I'm actually in a good mood for no apparent reason, wondering if I'm manic or having some other insidious problem rather than just sleeping a full night and not being too sore and doing and enjoying things I like. <a href="https://mas.to/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mentalhealth</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/mood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#mood</a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/paranoia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#paranoia</a>

No, it doesn't.Take it from someone who has had mental illness and who is on the spectrum.

WIST Quotations<a href="https://wist.info/bolt-robert/75551/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">A quotation from Robert Bolt</a><blockquote>MORE: (looks at him: takes him aside: lowered voice) Have I your word, that what we say here is between us and has no existence beyond these walls? NORFOLK: (impatient) Very well. MORE: (almost whispering) And if the King should command you to repeat what I have said? NORFOLK: I should keep my word to you!
