When life overwhelms me, I retreat into storylines where ordinary people become extraordinary despite trauma.
Sometimes, I wish Charles Xavier would roll into my life and tell me my brain is not broken — just differently wired.
A mutation.
An evolution.
A strength.
Storm taught me resilience.
Wolverine taught me endurance.
Rogue taught me emotional boundaries.
Jean taught me that overwhelming power doesn’t make you monstrous — being misunderstood does.
Stories save us in ways therapists never fully can.
