Sane, crazy, insanity and psychosis

84 posts in this topic

Look, the problem is that you operate still under strict labels. "Sane" behaviour is not sane, it is an assessment by you and your culture what is deemed "appropriate" and this concept helps to make this society work effectively and helps to identify people who drift off from the norm. Insanity is nothing but a gap between you and a norm group. 

The label of "psychosis" also implies this metaphysics, it implies there is an experience which is separate from a "normal" behaviour. Yes I had psychosis, I watched myself die and completely detached from my thoughts and the talking in my head. That is intensely scary. But just because the label of psychosis on this experience doesnt mean it does not belong to life or your journey as a spiritual seeker. When you want to go all the way, you have to let go of this fear of "dangerous" experience. The most challenging trips and situations are the ones that grow you hundredfold. Youll have to face it all and become used to handling these states. "Psychosis" is a label for running away from something in you. Something thats a part of you like everything else. 

From the absolute standpoint, there can be no sane or insane behavior. Its all behavior

nsane/psychosis person: gets lost in distinctions and concepts. Insane person draws connections and meaning out of his own ideas that others dont experience. These connections and meanings take a hold of a persons life and mentality in a disruptive way. A person is no longer able to tell wich of his fantasies and ideas are real and wich are not: they all blend together into his experience. Meaning and the further meanings of different meanings are not seen as a mental construct, meanings create real tangible physical features of reality.

The experience of the phone ringing MEANS that secret agents are watching. There need not be any evidence, first hand experience of agents themselves to prove they are real, meanings of different things that are experienced first hand create a reality for them. 

? all people who lived in the ddr where psychotic! well most of them, some where normies.

What about the communication style of the forums do you notice? I lurk but don't post a lot.

In my experience other forums are quite like this one. They have their own culture, language a hierarchy of members. Some of them are more unforgiving than others. Non-adherence to their ways is often smashed.

That is more or less inevitable.

In order to run any coherrent group, it must rest on a set of explicit and implicit values. In other words, the whole dynamics of collective ego. 

No platform anywhere is like your personal diary where you can communicate anything you want without retaliation.
