A harmless rant
I daily listen to podcasts.
One podcast a day.
My favourite topic is
serial killers and what makes them tick.
From cannibals who love an exotic taste to those with a weird hobby in creating human skin lamps.
I‘ve listen to them all.
But
there is one thing bugging me.
All these killers get caught and end up in the court.
Pleading for less time with a golden ticket.
A plead of insanity.
How can they associate mental health with these monsters.
I am offended that my condition
bipolar is compared to a serial killer.
Oh they must have mental health, no one in their right mind would kill.
Excuses after Excuses.
They had a shitty childhood blah blah blah.
Lots of sane people have had shitty childhoods but they don’t have the urge to kill.
Stop making excuses.
Admit it’s part of you, your personality that made you a killer.
Stop with the excuses.
You make people with mental health feel more isolated in a world where we are still misunderstood.
A plead for insanity is looking for the easy way out and not confronting the monster within.
