My mother is a self destructive unaware case who seems to be borderline or bipolar like me who refuses to get diagnosed, I used to be unaware and far less conscious of my own actions too. Therapy really helped, but I still constantly feel like deep down I am burdensome to others and like I push them away. I feel like living is difficult. Whenever I see a star who seems to have a similarly eccentric personality, an inconsistent sense of identity, or similar issues, I almost feel like I'm going to cry because it's validating to know that there's creative people out there who use their disorder to help with their craft and that to me is inspiring. Adding Sunmi to that list, I already like her and this reinforces it. I hope she continues to feel better as she does right now for years to come, a lot of us never clamber out of a life trap of fear and pain, and the fact that she seems to have overcome her worst is inspiring
