haha, this is proof that you take (my) words too literally.
i lived a relatively great life in vancouver, made (relative to vancouver standards) loads of money, lived in a great place, drove a great car (i still miss that car), was (and am still) with the love of my life, healthy, family close by, etc.
but, i couldn't stand vancouver people, the attitude of them, the lifestyle people try to attain all whilst living in a fake place full of fake people that has no ability to grow one's career to the standard i was looking for. so, i left. i have even more of what i had in vancouver now, but with the addition of living in one of the top ranked cities in the world that is full of a way better feel than vancouver - i'm sorry to report that vancovuer is a beautiful place, great place to be rich in, but terrible place to become rich, yet is full of fake 'rich' people.
let's just put it this way, i'll come back to vancouver when i retire (probably be in my late 40's) and spend 3-4 months there (the rest will be split between the US, Europe, and Asia) - difference is, i'll be one of those rich people who made their fortunes elsewhere to spend a little in vancouver. i'll be part of vancouver's problem - if you can't beat them, join them.
please don't try to knock me, it doesn't work, unlike many i'm so incredibly comfortable in my skin and happy with my accomplishments that I live to love life - you think i'm complaining because i'm grumpy or whatever, i complain about things because they could be so much better, but as i age I realize that the old adage is true - if you can't beat them, join them.
and yes, i am somewhat anti social. I have too many friends. I love time to myself, with my family, with my partner - i'm sorry if i get pleasure out of just living, i don't need to be constantly doing things with other people. having said that, it does come down to the people, people where i am now are way more chilled out, live and let live, etc.
so back to the original point, when someone says someone has mental issues so to lay off, it's suggesting they are incapable to live a real life because of their mental issue. This is crap. Mental issues are so common among people, ranging from the minor to the crazy, but they are all within the umbrella of mental health. don't take words so literally, it's a sign of lacking intelligence.
