When you see someone act outside of what you consider normal, do you judge or help them? How does a grown-up who grew up in a world not conditioned for her behave? How does bullying affect adulthood? This story is for introverts. If your life is rosy and optimistic, you should leave; you won't be able to handle it. Eliz struggles with anxiety and feels disconnected from others. Consequently, she imagines a fantasy world that parallels her own, where she has everything she cannot attain in real life. Her lack of experience is leaving her with doubts about neurodiversity, depression, her sexuality, and the loneliness that comes from her introversion. She struggles to find the strength to face a world where people do not see her as human and project their insecurities onto her, clinging to her "antidotes" as she calls them: a furbaby named Sky, music, chocolate, and Netflix. Without a support system around her, she uses all the stories she sees on the screens as a compass in her life and hopes to get the same result. Because if it works on TV, why not for her? She expresses what she can't convey through words in her mind by using analogies of TV characters or songs. Eliz ponders whether there's a place for her, viewing life through the lens of a mother who had to raise her alone and a sister who resembles a model from a magazine. A friend who is more of a friend when both are doing badly and a job she got because of dropping out of college. Add being monosyllabic, withdrawn, and a boss she doesn't know how to talk to because she "thinks" she's interested in him, but what does she do with that? Come in and look at the mess in her head, hidden behind a desk answering phones. Eliz is repetitive and full of insecurities. She is afraid of her shadow, kind of crazy, but with a good heart. © Registered in SAFE CREATIVE 2304104018014©All rights reserved.
