Mental illness is not a fraternity or a social club for like minds. It is its own religion to each person that has it. Their mind is their pastor, their feelings are their scriptures and their delusions are their own bible story. To break them free, is to break their faith in signs. That is why so many feel lost.

About This Quote

With the rise of social media, we tend to see our friends and acquaintances as characters in a movie. This has created a false image of people, and it is very hard to distinguish between real and fake. People can easily fool us and we can easily be fooled. This also leads to misunderstandings, which leads to anger and other emotions.

Mental illness is not a fraternity or a social club for like minds. It is its own religion to each person that has it. Their mind is their pastor, their feelings are their scriptures and their delusions are their own bible story.

To break them free, is to break their faith in signs. That is why so many feel lost.
