Did perpetual happiness in the Garden of Eden maybe get so boring that eating the apple was justified?

I feel like humans are not totally different than bears in the winter. Maybe it would be more accurate to say that we are not different than squirrels, or some other small, hibernating rodent. Perhaps the most honest thing to say would be I am not very different from a hibernating rodent. In the summer and spring I am a social animal, extroverted if I may. My internal balance of happiness is totally dependent on the frequency and quality of interpersonal contact. Despite this totally universal and basic need for social interaction, come late fall/wintertime, I get upset and positively irate if I have to see more than two different people a day and am also expected to act cordially among them.

Instead during these colder seasons, I find myself turning the proverbial eye inward and am much happier to observe and reflect rather than participate and experience. And I also notice that I have no middle ground. I'm either 100% engaged in my social relationships or I'm a recluse.

To this observation I also have a theory: F. Scott Fitzgerald (my personal hero and an author to whose level I aspire) said that a writer is not a person who writes of many people, but many people whose thoughts and reactions are described through the life and reactions of one person. I am immediately drawn to and repulsed by this statement (perhaps further proving his point?). It appeals to me because who wouldn't want a personality so multi-faceted? It vexes me because the one thing I really pride myself on is being able to maintain a level of artistic intelligence while maintaining a certain soundness of mind.

But inevitably I must concede. I feel as though I have hundreds of contradicting personalities, each contending strongly for spotlight via my pen. That being said, let me be clear. I am not, nor have I ever shown any clinically definable characteristics of schizophrenia. Or any form of mental disorder. With the possible exception of ADD. But let's be honest. That's obviously a bureaucratic term to be given to and inevitably treated in people who in reality are just living in a world that they are so devastatingly bored and suppressed by.
