Re: Still crazy after all these years

[Guest guest]

Isn't it amazing how we all still think we'll starve to death? The

funny thing is until I got pregnant and they took all my fill out, I

didn't even remember what normal hungry feels like. I think I also

just thought I was hungry when I had a good fill. LOL

glad to know someone else is still crazy besides me!!!! at least i

feel that i get less and less crazy as i get older......hopefully.

aside from those who are certifiably crazy and belong in

institutions, our crazyness is a result of how we handle the

crazyness of the environments we grew up in. and when this is the

case, the quickest way to be not crazy is to accept what is/was and

stop fighting it. we don't have to be crazy unless we choose it.

(that's for those of us who are realtively normal. the hospital

cases don't apply here)

wow george you are very serious these days.

i think that there can be a good craziness...a joie de vivre....

a curiosity... joy -- to me those are good crazy.

i have tried to overcome bad craziness.....and i guess i dont tend to

use the word to describe abnormal conditions!!! sorry for the confusion dearie.

That is indeed one factor for many, but not the only one.

Yes and no. Many were so trained, or literally had the craziness

beaten into them (often literally) they believe it IS NORMAL and that

there is therefore nothing wrong with them.

> we don't have to be crazy unless we choose it.

Again, that assumes that we KNOW that we're crazy over these things.

It also assumes that we've not so thoroughly repressed them that we

don't recall they even happened.

The line between normal crazy and crazy crazy is often very thin.
