 I possess these habits. 
I just feel normal. 
Everything less is a symptom of sickness in one way or another 
 Normalcy in the face of unrelenting propaganda and misinformation is commendable though. 

I’ve been raised to be a big pharma trusting, government obeying, climate change fearing, food pyramid following, plant based / seed oil simp. Most in America have been propagandized with this rhetoric from birth. From their parents, public education, friends, relatives and every person on tv and radio. Especially those born in the 80s or later. 

The propaganda me and my peers have endured has been unfathomable. To figure out reality and follow those threads and act on them no matter how crazy it makes you seem, from deep within the matrix, proves a particularly strong and capable individual. 
 Add home birthing baby catcher to the list and I'm in. 
 I’m not there yet. But respect🫡 
 ‘a big pharma trusting, government obeying, climate change fearing, food pyramid following, plant based / seed oil simp.’

Woah! Thats a hell of a self deprecating. 

Kudos on figuring it out. 

I too went through a discovery phase. I just wish more could accept the lies. 
 I’m saying that’s what society raised us to think. I never was that, but raised to be that. 
 This sentiment hits!
