I knew adulthood while I was a child

 I knew adulthood while I was a child. I like childish things now that I'm a man.

I frequently discuss trauma, how it impacts us, and how it molds and transforms us. I had a very difficult childhood and went through a lot of pain. No child should ever experience crippling depression or the intrusive thoughts that go along with it, but I got to. Although I had always been a child who was mature for his age, which is frequently a sign of trauma or abuse, having bipolar disease certainly exacerbated that trend.

My bipolar disease caused me to miss out on a lot of my youth. I had to learn how to handle my suicidal ideas.
