I don't know that "normal" is really even a thing that exists. Normal is really a subjective thing. I worried for a long time that I would never be "normal" but was relieved when I came to the realization that normal is really an arbitrary goal to work towards. Instead, it might be more helpful to think of where you want to be (as I said, this is subjective) instead of thinking about where other people are. I found that one of the things that caused me the most stress was this habit of always comparing myself to people I thought were "normal."

I have felt this way many times. I can understand what you mean when you say that. But one thing I have learned is that there is no such thing as normal. And just because you may be feeling some way or going through things, doesn't make you not normal. Try and find your own normal. Accept yourself for who you are now. There is no point in looking back at the past. Maybe the things in your life that have changed, changed for a reason. And this is a start of a brand new beginning.

Firstly, there's something to be said about the word "normal" as a whole. It can be very difficult to define, in fact, it's impossible because "normal" depends entirely on circumstance and the people surrounding us. You may or may not be normal considering the people around you, that may or may not be a problem for those around you. Clearly, it is bothering you and that can be frustrating. The answer to this question really depends on what sort of "normal" you mean. Physically abled? Mentally healthy? Or perhaps it's simply some aspect of your personality that doesn't fit into the standard of normal that you or those around you have. That can certainly be upsetting and difficult to deal with. However, the thing is, you are no lesser if you are not normal. Being normal doesn't make you more valuable. Being normal doesn't make you more worthy. Being normal doesn't mean that you are a better person. It can be difficult when you feel like you are misunderstood, maybe you are. But normal isn't a necessity, that's for certain. It's not necessary to be normal and it's absolutely not the most important quality in a person, at all.

I guess thinking about being normal again depends if I ever was normal before. It also depends on my definition of "normal". Did my definition of "normal" change? I would rather ask myself- if I do the work that I need to do to better understand myself and to make positive and healthy decisions, will I finally be at peace with myself as well as in relation with the world around me? Are the things I work on and achieve leading me to the vision of being happy within myself, as well as with others? That is my definition of normal as I see it now.
