The advertisement shining on the telephone pole sang to me. The bright, crisp pink paper had sharp, fresh edges, as if it had been placed there just for me. Other tattered, sad advertisements flittered around it, their slips with phone numbers waving impotently in the breeze. They didn’t seem fated, meant for her. The words Josephine didn’t realize she was seeking until they called out to her near her bus stop. <...
Outstanding reviews
I loved it as soon as I read the title. And then this: "The tangible benefits that come with being a sociopath in our modern society hardly need to be explained." That's capitalism for ya. Being void of emotion and empathy...youve just described every successful corporate CEO. And beyond economical politics, each step felt like a phase of adolescence, which yeah...were all a bit sociopathic at that age 😅 this was an interesting read, Audrey! Curious how you came up with it!
Sometimes I wish I didn't feel feelings lmao that's how
Aw! I think we can all relate to that Audrey! I'm glad writing can be an outlet for you when you do feel those things!
thank you yes writing is my favorite/healthiest/safest receptical for my rage.
This seemed very honest so bravo for telling this story.Fascinating structure. It was a very interesting read. Thanks for sharing
Audrey, I loved this. But then, I am mentally unwell. If you want to surpass steps 1-11 quickly, I suggest boat loads of childhood trauma. You wake up one day and realize you can't feel anything at all. Very helpful survival tactic. Sociopathy, or (Antisocial personality disorder) is very fascinating. This mentor is only controversial to those who don't realize what a liability feeling can be. Great story this week!
Thank you, that means a lot. I am sorry that you had to go through the trauma, but I'm glad you found a mental weapon to protect you against the world. It does seem like the body and mind's survival tactic, and I don't fault anyone who sometimes wishes they could skip that step and go straight to the results because then we can avoid having to feel the trauma along the way.
Audrey, who hurt you?
hahahah it wouldn't fit in the word count!
This was really fun to read. As someone who was once “tricked” by a narcissist, this story rang true. Reminds of that book, “Snakes in Suits.” But I also read a book about the benefits of being. Sociopaths. Like, you kind of want your trauma surgeon or transplant surgeon to be a sociopath, you do not want them to me emotional, lol
