This inquiry is inspired by the anews podcast no. 199 in which Chisel speaks about people containing multitudes (paraphrase), that this had interested Chisel for a time.
I have BiPolar I. The manic episodes have included psychosis.
Do any of you have opinions about psychosis and anarchy? I know that there is the library ... I am feeling social okay?
My thoughts: "What is freedom when one loses control and does shameful things or regrettable things? Who or what within me was free during the psychosis? Who or what was bound ? How does one apologize, excuse oneself, communicate psychosis and regret ? Are all regrettfully harmful behaviors a result of illness? Is there anything essential about me, since I have a mood disorder and psychosis?"
These might not be anarchist questions (just person questions). Maybe there is something to speak to here. Just throwing this topic (psychosis, mood disorders) at the wall to see what sticks.
PS: there is no wall. Haha
TLDR: Looking for anything relevant to psychosis or feeling "out of control" as an anarchist. Please also challenge the premise!
