I’ve had people tell me that this is (their words, not mine): “mental illness”

    Told my older parents I use a custom ROM with a profile for work and a profile for personal and they asked me what I’m hiding, and why I’m so paranoid. I said… it’s not paranoia, it’s organization. Color coding profiles allows my mind to switch gears from work to personal life like mental compartments. I am a boring person. I have nothing to be paranoid about. They didn’t believe me. Oh well…

    Edit: part of me thinks the whole mental state switching from work profile to personal is an ADHD aspect as well. Especially the color coding helps wonders.
