Ive lost my mind before. I had a manic episode, my first and only one. Felt immense euphoria. Saw incredible detail like rainbow diffraction of water from the sink faucet. I thought I was Jesus and there were only 2 forces in the world, pushes and pulls. Gravity aka dark light pulls. Light pushes (radiation pressure.)

I felt enlightened and had an altercation with the police who ended up beating the living shit out of me causing 3 herniated discs and TMJ that cause me agony and chronic pain daily. I have to take opiates to deal with the pain - otherwise I would be unable to have an active life.

This guy didn't experience what happens in most mental breakdowns. If you can get yourself to the doctor you have truly not lost your mind. But its a cute story.

Keep downvoting me for posting the hard truth. Real discourse...
