Sorry to disillusion you, but there's no such thing as a "regular" childhood 
Knowing what I know about people around here, I can guarantee there's almost nothing that can't be overcome. Whether you end up "normal" is just dependent on whether you conform to an arbitrary measure made by people who think they have a right to label others. You end up how you end up, and once you hit adulthood, nobody is responsible for that but you.
Artists are probably a bit luckier than most -- at least we have a way to express ourselves and reach others at the same time.

It could be worse
