RE: Psychology Addict # 60 | A Journey Through The History of Madness.
The title of this post really got me smiling
My comment may be a little unrelated to the post but I'll drop it anyway because the issue of madness is raised.
I once heard a very funny statement a while ago when someone said that everyone has their own period of "madness". I did not want to argue with him, because we may end up exhibiting some "madness" and thereby proving his statement right.
Even though I don't know if to agree with him or not, but I do know that there are some behaviours that are exhibited by the so called sane people, and people will just appreciate mad people. Okay I know I'm being sarcastic, but there's truth in it.
Just like the place where I grew, there's a level of provocation you'll give to someone and you'll hear something like this...
shey u dey mad ni? Try am again, u go see say I dey craze
This translates to "...if you try this again, I'll show you madness".
This has made the term "madness" often used by hommies without really knowing what it means.
Nice post as usual dear Abbey. Much love from Nigeria
Sammi :) <3
Oh! I truly appreciate that you take the time to share here with me the conversations you have with your friends and acquaintances about mental health topics. I find important because it gives me the chance to see how these issues and concepts are perceived in the world out there (first hand!) 😊
The title is "crazy", right? ;)
Take care dearest Sammi,
Lots of love from Portugal :*
