I remember feeling adults were mad and I vowed to whatever gods existed I would never become one — mentally.

Ditto.

I also remember that odd performative feel to most things, which was why fiction was a relief because it was openly an invention, a fake and so was paradoxically authentic. I got so obsessed with trying to read the codes, I have ended up teaching semiology. lol

I think you've got something here to pursue

There's a bit to compliment here; the notions on recognizing the dysfunction in others with the difficult of recognizing it in oneself, for example. But I might like to append your overall article with the notion that many people that exist are new or younger souls, as our population is expanding. And this is to be a major point of civilization moving forward. The geniuses will emerge from them, and they, as a herd, will serve to seat such older souls that will be born through them.
