When I was a kid I wanted to grow up and become an mental asylum patient

[Vermilioncore]

I remember being 12 and hoping others thought I was deranged and insane and I always looked up to people in movies that were in mental institutions.

So my question is, am I finally mentally ill like I wanted to be, or am I just pretending to be mentally ill? if I’m pretending I must be good because I even tricked myself into thinking I’m really sick in my head

If you're that good at pretending, doesn't it mean you're actually mentally ill?

but are my attempts to be mentally ill a sign of mental illness? also, part of me thinks that I don’t want to be mentally ill and I am not pretending and I’m perfectly normal, but part of me wishes that deep down I’m just insane. Inception type shit innit bozo

Blud did not want to become an astronaut or lawyer

A lot of movies and pop culture glorified mental illness. So you're probably just affected by propoganda.
