Exoteric Me

Growing Up

I’ve always had this fascination with the odd and creepy. Not necessarily blood and gore per se, but things that are out of the ordinary and disturbing in a psychological way. Even when I was little, my parents noticed I would be drawn to darker things.

They were so concerned that they made me see a child psychologist and after a few sessions they were told it might be a coping mechanism for me since they adopted me. I think it has something to do with my birth parents, but my parents won’t talk about it. They said they’d tell me when they think I’m ready and I remember getting into so many fights with them about it.

Thinking about it starts to make me feel really guilty. I did say a lot of nasty things to them. And I don’t even care about it anymore.
