The concept of what is normal or abnormal seems to be based on societal standards. The subjective experience is completely different; what a person experiences can run parallel to what society expects of them or not. Just because a person is either normal or abnormal by the standards of society, that doesn't make their subjective experience any more or less legitimate. If you're an outlier, if you're not quite normal, there's nothing wrong with that. Nor is there anything wrong with being normal. Everyone is a victim of their own circumstances, at least to some degree.
