I fear I may be going insane :(

Archive: 25 posts

Ughnuh...
It's official. I'm turning into Herbert Higgonbottom

Let me explain... I was sick for a couple of days. I also fainted and thonked my head.

And then the stress of catching up on work in the toughest school in the city, and practically failing.

All this accompanied by dark thoughts of greed and memories and stuff slowly accumulating in my mind is causing me to go into a dark corner in my mind

I'm questioning life, thinking of killing people, plotting, wanting to run away, having constant monologues, all that stuff, fearing my LittleBigPlanet will be taken forever because I'm having bad grades (I rather be an adult with a fun job than a kid with a dark life )....

And randomly laughing...


Oh god I need to see a doctor. I think the fear of losing LBP is causing this.


... hahahKHiUHBzhh!

I don't know how to respond to this, but if you can tell your insane, you probably aren't; but if such things continue or get out of hand, then see a doctor or someone.2011-01-27 04:56:00

I think this is less insanity, and more anxiety.

If that is the case, you probably wanna go look up on that, figure out ways to calm yourself, and if you really feel it, go see a doctor.		2011-01-27 05:11:00

I've been like that all my life...?

Maybe you are insane but I think at the moment that you're under a lot of strain which would make anyone not feel themselves.		2011-01-27 09:12:00

It's been proven if you have the mental capacity to judge yourself being insane, then you're not insane. People who are "medically" insane (Those treated and diagnosed with insanity) do not believe themselves to be insane. It's one of those "You can't know if you're this or not" things. To know your insane means you aren't insane.2011-01-27 09:19:00

This has been posted twice in this thread now. Having come out the other side of the tunnel I can safely say that you are self-conscious and aware, it's just there's nothing else to go on, it's really frustrating.

Have you ever had a bad trip?		2011-01-27 09:28:00

Not sure what you mean by "bad trip". If you mean went away somewhere and just had an overall lousy time where you feel tense, anxious and just kind of in a bad mood, then ya. But this could be referring to a number of different things.		2011-01-27 09:35:00

I wonder if I'm insane constantly because I go off the deep end sometimes and rant to my wife,but at the time it makes sense until I calm down and find it didn't make sense at all but then I try to justify my anger with rational thoughts and just end up being angry again. Bottom line is.....weeeez all insane 0_o .2011-01-27 13:09:00

Meh, sceptical types would call me insane because I constantly walk around and can't stand still, talk to myself a bit and enjoy being on my own (I went on a school trip today, I was the only boy in my Year going, sat by myself, it was very fun). But what you going to do? It's fine, I think everyone has something that others wouldn't consider normal, it's just how we are.2011-01-27 21:00:00

To be honest, most of the things you are experiencing seem rather typical on the symptoms people BELIEVE mentally ill people experience. It's a stereotype that all mentally ill people have those symptoms that you'd see on television and in movies.

To be honest, I reckon you're probably scared or anxious or becoming "insane", probably because you've had an experience where something's happened that has made you think you might be going "mad". The anxiety in being worred that your mental health deteriorating has probably caused you to over-analyse your actions, and to second guess things you probably usually do unconciously.

If it's causing you considerable amounts of distress, then it's best advised to go and see a doctor. I'd actually advise against looking up these things on the internet, unless you know exactly what you're looking for. Looking at these things on the internet sometimes might make you think you have things you don't have - I mean, I've flicked through different books on diagnosis before, and if you read enough, you'll always manage to convince yourself you've got an illness you don't actually have.

Anyway, I'd say try and relax a little. It doesn't even matter if you have these thoughts or feelings, it's only an issue if it's causing you distress, or if it's something that would cause someone else harm. 9/10 times though, thinking about hurting people or being scared of hurting or killing someone says something in itself - you're scared of doing it. That usually implies that it's not something you'd actually realistically do, but just a fear you have. Just try and relax a little like I said, and it might be an idea to ease off the violent/provocative/controversial television programmes if you watch them, just for a little while.		2011-01-27 21:51:00

Insanity, craziness or madness is a spectrum of behaviors characterized by certain abnormal mental or behavioral patterns. Insanity may manifest as violations of societal norms, including becoming a danger to themselves and others, though not all such acts are considered insanity.
(bold and underline mine)

According to that, you are not insane. Congrats!		2011-01-28 16:04:00

it is not you who is insane it is the world.
for example, i was talking to a quiche a while back and it was convinced that it was a flan.
we argued and the quiche ended up dead on the street.
now society would say that i have a problem.
but the truth is, the quiche was mad and only realised it was not a flan as it lay dying on the street.		2011-01-29 22:54:00

Both are delicious. So, either way, it would have been a good snack. That's why it is a waste.		2011-02-01 03:48:00

You're not insane. It happens that I think dark thoughts too from time to time. Anyways, talk to your parents or/and a doctor if you think that it's going out of hand.2011-02-01 04:21:00

Humanity is irrational, irrationality = insanity, therefore everyone is insane.

Which makes you, normal.		2011-02-01 23:42:00

sanity is a condition imposed upon us by society to halt innovation and imagination.
its purpose is to make feel better than others and promote our self centred society.
in exactly the same way that hitler made germany feel about jews.
society must be destroyed before it systematically removes those who are different.
hitler only changed germany
