the core irony of mental health

[Advocate]

To be serious about your mental health is to not take things so seriously.

Only an insane person can think we live in a sane world.

Think of how much peace there would be if we all joined the same club.

Do you mean if we all changed our minds to agree with each other, or do you mean if we all found ourselves in the same place at the same time and had to carry on physical conversations with each other in our present states of mind?

I mean if we all occupied the same Cuckoo's Nest, aside from a few inevitable skirmishes, there would be more peace in the valley. We would instead, depend on nature for extinction which is a lot safer then depending on us for such an event to happen. We're more prone to expedite ourselves into oblivion. Think how long the dinosaurs had to wait before the final curtain call.

I wonder what is worse, dying at the hands of another living being or dying of self-euthanasia.

That depends on that which is more immediate and effective. Personally, I'm convinced euthanasia clinics would be the best solution; in spite of all the religious hogwash trying to intercept and interdict it as some sort of sacrilege robbing some idiot god of its right to decide, I think there's a definite possibility of such clinics becoming institutionalized at some point in the future. Regardless of all the crimes by humanity against humans throughout history - which include the religious ones as well - one can still expect a modicum of mercy and beneficence from them more than from god or nature, the two being the same.

Sanity is when one's views fit in with the group, insanity is when they do not; sanity and insanity are determined by the bandwagon.

There are such things as hallucinations and delusions. Hallucination and delusion conflict with reality. Insanity is a thought or perception that conflicts with reality.

The better defines the worse which is made worser by such arbitrary self-restrictions.

Illusion and delusion are different words.

Do they have different meanings?

Last time I checked reality is conflict so by that degree hallucinations and delusions are a normal part of it and by default are actual revelations of it.
