That title can be totally disregarded as Crazy because it doesn’t have an factual reference except what I have conceived in my head. Perhaps, that if lucky maybe 2 out of 3 people obtain a keener sense of reality after a mental breakdown with delusional tendencies.
I came up with this odd fraction from my experience in mental health facilities observing my peers as I received treatment and of course in the “outside world”.
I count myself of the lucky group considered functional within society with medical treatments.
See, I felt I was crazy when I had my first couple nervous breakdowns. I couldn’t understand what was going on within my own thoughts; my perception of reality was in turn skewed and my mood resulted as topsy turvy.
My heart always goes out to those that seemed to still be out of touch with reality . Once in a while I am blessed to encounter a discharged patient on the outside. Last friend didn’t recognize me 😦
Nonetheless it was great to see she was surviving too!

It feels like a dream sometimes, my reality. It becomes harder and harder to talk to your loved ones when you can’t differentiate between the incorporeal and your tangible reality. People don’t understand how much a moment like waking up lucid (understanding what day it is, where they are, who is next to them, etc.) can be a celebration.
