Arachnophobia is definitely a good one

>A noiseless, patient spider,
I mark’d, where, on a little promontory, it stood, isolated;
Mark’d how, to explore the vacant, vast surrounding,
It launch’d forth filament, filament, filament, out of itself;
Ever unreeling them—ever tirelessly speeding them.

>And you, O my Soul, where you stand,
Surrounded, surrounded, in measureless oceans of space,
Ceaselessly musing, venturing, throwing,—seeking the spheres, to connect them;
Till the bridge you will need, be form’d—till the ductile anchor hold;
Till the gossamer thread you fling, catch somewhere, O my Soul.

It's funny to think how some pseudo scientists that add new disorders to a book every single year currently consider me normal but will almost certainly consider my inability to cope with background noise a mental illness in the next few years.

none. maybe early on when you've got that innate youthful spark and are in the right places at the right time. but honestly I'm twenty seven now I rode that whole thing of thinking my illness was some kind of gift I could deploy at an point to make beautiful things and now there's no real beauty left in me. it's literal brain rot after a certain point especially if you start self medicating.
