Are you insane?

please pray that I find sanity and be a good productive member of society who behaves with maturity, prudence, and doesn't wrong others or behave selfishly.

Thank you!

You don't strike me as insane! :)

...that's because you can't see me! :D

No, I'm not actually insane. At least I don't suspect it about myself, but sometimes others think I'm loony(I think they're loony).

I guess I'm pretty eccentric. I always knew I was pretty out there, but when a friend that spent several years traveling in a hippie caravan around the country told me once "you're the most eccentric person I ever met!" I stopped and thought about all the weirdos she had run across... and that I was stranger yet than any of them... I stopped and reviewed myself and admitted "yeah, I'm pretty weird."

:D

Homo Sapiens are very weird.

If there is an actual sane entity out there, I hope to become sane by his/her/their standards.

But God in the Bible is not sane by my standards, so I don't know if I would want to be sane by his standards!:grimacing:

What's sane, really? Its a pretty loose term. One can be compassionate and kindly, yet do things that others find 'not right', like spend half of their paycheck feeding squirrels and birds. Someone else could be career oriented and successful, but may be hostile and paranoid of people around them.

I'd try to narrow down what you're looking for a little more than just 'sane'.

maturity, prudence, and doesn't wrong others or behave selfishly.

This is a little more exact, and will probably be more helpful of a goal to aim for.

Do you question your sanity or mental health?

Why or why not?

No, because I'm perfectly sane. I know that people sometimes question my sanity and think I'm insane. They're probably gossiping about me this very minute, discussing their observations of me and wondering if I'm insane. They might even be watching me and logging in to my computer to monitor my internet habits. There are aliens and lizardmen out to get me.

It's a good thing I'm completely sane, otherwise all this would drive me crazy.

No, I'm not insane, and never have been. But I certainly haven't been in the best of mental health for much of my life, and just as many do, I coped but often rather badly. One aspect of my issues was in not even seeking help - or not seriously. Even if I did manage to overcome most of my ailments, I wasted a lot of my life and many opportunities, but what often upsets me more than much else is how so many can appear to idly watch as one disintegrates. Doesn't tend to leave one with a favourable view of humanity. :oops:

Where are those?

Certainly there's none of those on RF...
Normals....they're the ones filled with empathy, spirituality,
love for their fellow man, holding regular jobs, & having
utterly no interest in scrap iron. Are they evil?
