Here is an excerpt from Veronika Decides to Die by Paulo Coelho.

" So let's turn to your illness: each human being is unique, each with their own qualities, instincts, forms of pleasure and desire for adventure. However, society always imposes on us a collective way of behaving, and people never stop to wonder why they should behave like that. They just accept it, the way that typists accepted the fact that the QWERTY keyboard was the best possible one (it was made to make us type slower!) ....Your someone who is different, but who wants to be the same as everyone else.  And that in my view, is a serious illness...It is as if you force yourself to be the same as everyone else: it causes neurosis, psychoses, and paranoia. It's a distortion of nature, it goes against God's laws, for in all the world's woods and forests, He did not create a single leaf the same as another. "

These words ring so true, time to accept, and be that authentic different human, you were born to be......
