Fish on a Hook

Chattering, whispers, sometimes benign, sometimes malevolent. Disordered thought, tangential ideas, and delusions of grandeur, persecution and paranoia. Lilliputian hallucinations, and deafening imperatives from the cacophony of characters that reside within. This piece focuses on what it is to experience psychosis, but more importantly what it is not: it is not split personality, it can exist in otherwise 'normal' people, and it does not give rise to a culture of violent people, unable to function or be connected to the 'real' world.

A woman's tale story about becoming more manic, as she soars to the heights of euphoria, literally floating through the air on the winds of grandiosity, and disinhibition. And then, without warning, we see the fall to despair, to a dark world without meaning; an inner world of depression made all the worse by the still-fresh memory of the essence of her euphoria, the light bulb within her. This is the world of manic-depression, from the oh-so-highs, to the oh-so-lows, when the brightness within her, that light bulb thing, has gone out.

Steve describes how whenever he thought of Saddam Hussein he thought that he was contributing to the conflict in the Gulf. Walking, talking, eating, and drinking - all these actions had to be completed in the absence of an intrusive thought about Saddam, otherwise he would have to repeat the action again and again and again. A rare glimps into the struggle for those faced with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
