Reality is good for sanity and I feel like I’ve receded away from it. My mind is mixed up with all kinds of unreal beliefs and thoughts. I’m a messed up role-game chraracter and I need to wake up. Fantasy is great for art but I should not mix it up too much with reality.
I’m not religious so that helped distinguish a lot of what I was having delusions about, and helped me. I have trouble sometimes distinguishing when I’m awake or dreaming sometimes once I go to bed, as my dreams have become very vivid since I began taking the latest batch of medication, but I still retain a grounded view. If I’m in a dream, I no longer feel the security to go with the flow, and let the loose logic of my sleeping mind flow. I take a disciplined dogmatically rationalist view about how to behave and hopefully if I ever can’t distinguish between when I’m dreaming or awake, this approach will keep me safe.
I believe in a spiritual reality something the doctors call schiz
Pills work for most. Insanity isn’t any fun and turn of last century they’d send you to an institution and you’d spend your life there.
We’ve moved some ways from there. Don’t get me wrong. It’s a tough cop for most but it’s better than the alternatives. No use crying over spilt milk. Just get on with it!
