I see a sign for a bathroom and rush toward it. It feels stupid to be thinking about something as ordinary as going to the bathroom right now, but people still have to pee, still have to cry, still have to be human, no matter what else is happening.

About This Quote

The first time I read this quote, which is attributed to U.S. president Thomas Jefferson, I didn’t know what it meant. Now that I have a better understanding of the meaning behind the quote, it still makes me laugh. To most people, going to the bathroom is just something that needs to be done.

However, for some people, they are so consumed by worry about what they are thinking about at any given moment that they can’t seem to think about anything else. This is not healthy for anyone who suffers from anxiety or depression.
