DEIRDRE FIDGE JUST WANTS TO GIVE HER BRAIN A BREAK, OK?
Humans have around 86 million neurons in our brains, woven together by an estimated 100 trillion connections. There is an astounding amount we don’t know about the mind, but one thing is certain: we all need an occasional treatie. A treatie is a filthy little activity that brings pleasure and escapism from life’s horrors. This differs from a standard ‘treat’, which is a socially acceptable pastime you’d feel comfortable naming in a job interview if asked what you do for fun.
Everyone’s treatie is unique to them. Maybe yours is staying in the bath longer than recommended by any dermatologist or mental health professional. Maybe you sit in darkened carparks eating Happy Meals
