Mentally Unstable

[Junket]

How do you know when you've reached a state of mental instability?

If you can rationalize irrationality...if you're really crazy, is it possible to be aware of it?

Doubt it. Crazy people think they're sane.

illusions are a big factor.

usually, the person who has the disturbance, is not the one who realizes; it's their peers. because, they seem to have 'imaginary friends' who claim are really there, but they aren't.

schizophrenia often makes someone feel like there is bugs all over their skin, causing them to scratch their skin raw. but there isn't really bugs there.

Talking about going on a tangent...

Fras- I ask myself that question every other day. How do you know? Maybe pay someone to tell you, like a psychiatrist?

I think you mentally unstable when your unhappy and can't find your way back to being happy/content.

I think you can recognise when you've reached mental instability if you've managed to create a seperate logical side to your personality. However, that in itself could be a sign of mental instability. And as emotions all too often prevent us from being logical how the hell can you tell when you're not being logical?

Maybe we were all born mentally instable?

Its a disturbing thought, but the evidence is all around us. Although of course some of use are born more mentally unstable than others and the environment plays its part. Blah, blah, blah.... But yeah, eventually it all comes down to those annoying brain chemicals of ours again.

Damn those brain chemicals!!! Damn them all to hell!!!

Even the ones that are telling you that you are in love with me?

[anachronistic]

on different levels, i believe we all are.

just like the chinese proverb; "we are all ignorant, on certain topics"

[Sooky]

Even the ones that are telling you that you are in love with me?

Well I don't recall having those particular brain chemicals... but yes especially those if they were there. Romantic love is the ultimate form of natural mind control. It will push all logic out of the window if you're not careful.

Ouch...

Ouch...

See love hurts. It sucks!!! That’s why I try and block it out. So I guess I could be hiding intense feelings of love towards you deep down in my subconscious somewhere. Its possible...

If I was going to love anyone it'd be you. I mean we are married for Heavens sake!!! And when you asked me I didn't take long to say yes (just a few seconds if I recall) so that’s got to tell you something.Its obvious really. I'm in denial.
