Most people don’t understand how easy and common it is to develop psychotic symptoms or that everyone literally everyone has the capacity to experience psychosis

In fact if you’ve ever been sleep deprived including being able to sleep in shorter bursts but unable to get several REM cycles or you use substances to cause sedation rather than sleep you’ve likely experienced mild hallucinations already

They’re called disturbances. The things like thinking you heard someone call your name, feeling crawling sensation on your skin briefly, seeing things move in your peripheral but nothings there when you look.

This is (one of the reasons) why I really hate the “I’m [anxious/ADHD/depressed/etc.] not crazy!” The divide you draw between yourself and people with psychosis and psychotic symptoms only serves to harm. Not only those you alienate but also yourself. Because you have no guarantee that you will not join us one day.

We are all several nights of poor or no sleep and several bad things away from psychosis. It serves no one to be ignorant of it.

Well considering that lots of my poetry is actually either political or in some way related to alienation and death (explicitly, not vaguely) I’m not sure how I feel about that last sentence. Is my art drenched in a melancholic gothic-romantic vibe? - Maybe. But it’s definitely not limp or numb.. and not really directionless.

Listless lamentations -> post ironic deathwish, acceptance of meaninglessness (Because I believe that any art that is sure of its meaning is profane. But that’s just a difference in philosophies ^^)

I just found this quiz and it’s, phenomenal

I’m sorry, but aren’t we collectively tired of all our clothes being made of polyester?

this is going to sound like the most boomer take ever but I genuinely think increasing reliance on technology for entertainment in youth is draining creativity. it's that instant gratification which allows you to shut your brain off for a while. these kids aren't having to resort to their own creativity when bored. there's always a solution to "bored" now. BRING BACK PLAYING WOLVES UNTIL BEDTIME
