A crazy man doesn't know he is crazy

How true is that statement?

Right now, I know I am “crazy.”

When I am in psychosis I don’t.

Half the battle is knowing you’re unwell or the thoughts you are following are irrational. Been there got the t-shirt.

Sometimes I know when I’m in psychosis. But that is only mild psychosis. When it is severe psychosis I can’t tell that I’m losing it. I always find another explanation. Self-protecting denial I think.

Depends what is going on, I do have people targeting me, they break into my trucks, damage things, steal tools etc, they have a automatic truck opener as well, so I can’t even lock it up, add that to what my mind does on my own and you walk on the verge of insanity. Having to deal with both, brings your stress levels to a point that are off the charts. Then those who are supposed to help even ad to it, doctors sit their and tell you it never happened, police tell you you should see a therapist and it goes on and on. While they do that any extra money is going out the door to those who have to come out and fix the damage that is there and the neighbors have witnessed.

Not much point to getting therapy, it becomes pointless
