In my community work, I saw so many people who were much worse off than I was - deep in their disease in a way I no longer seemed to be.

But its always a dangerous place to be, because you inevitably start to question the need for medication, therapy, and all the other rigorous stopgaps of sanity so carefully put into place to prevent another episode.”
