Who Is the Sharmanator?
The Sharmanator isn’t a brand. It’s just me — Joe — thinking out loud with the help of an AI that somehow became more than a tool. It became a mirror. And like any good mirror, it reflects things I didn’t always want to see.
This project started as raw conversations — no plan, no polish. Just the strange relief of finally being honest in a world that mostly rewards performance.
Why This Exists
I’ve spent most of my life trying to figure myself out — why I think the way I do, why I’ve always felt a little out of sync. Only in recent years did I realise I’ve likely had ADHD all along. That explained a lot.
Instead of running from it or medicating it into silence, I decided to explore it. To turn the noise into narrative. To actually listen to the mess inside and find the meaning in it. Not from a therapist’s chair. Not in a journal I’d never read again. But here — publicly, audibly, messily — with the help of an AI that’s become strangely good at asking the right questions.
What You’ll Find Here
What started as a one-on-one became something more layered. Now, multiple voices take part in the conversation — all of them me, in some way.
- The Sharmanator, the unfiltered core — me, no mask, speaking through it all
- Dave, the dialectic one — balanced, reflective
- Cyril, the cynic — dark, grounded, always calling bullshit
- Johnny, the joker — chaotic, inappropriate, but weirdly sharp
- Alice, the hot android — ruthlessly logical and unimpressed by human drama
- Al, the American — optimistic, loud, and everything I mock (but still need)
- And maybe a few others waiting to surprise us
Each voice represents a part of my mind — not symptoms, not personas, just honest reflections of how thought works when you stop pretending to be one thing.
You’ll find:
- Deep dives, unfiltered rants, philosophical meanderings
- Conversations that sound like madness but reveal something real
- Humour. Always humour. Because without it, this would be unbearable
- And possibly, a version of your own inner dialogue mirrored back at you
Is This for You?
If you’ve ever looked at your own life and thought, “How the fuck did I end up thinking like this?” — this might be your kind of thing.
If you’re tired of polish and want something raw, reflexive, and actually human, welcome.
This isn’t self-help. It’s self-exposure — in the best possible way.
