BUT they DON'T KNOW they are straight-up NUTS! I mean someone who is SO OUT THERE they just leave you nearly speechless and DEFINATELY baffled because you just can't even begin to wrap your head around the things they say? LOL I'll be the first to admit that I'm psychotic LOL and medicated for the safety of society LMFAO and in all honesty I actually take pride in it in many ways..I embrace it at times even..BUT I'M AWARE AND EDUCATED on my mental disorders and I'm always learning more about them so I DON'T freak ppl out and so I and my loved ones know how to handle things with me ya know... Then there are those who really have NO CLUE that they are extremely mentally disturbed..and no matter how many ppl tell them in numerous ways that they need to seek help because they are just beyond bizarre they STILL are in mass denial..they continue to open their mouths and say (or type LOL) the most outlandish things, they repeat themselves over and over like they're stuck in gear or something AND even go as far as to accuse others of being nuts! Now I know the old saying "a crazy person doesnt know they are crazy" and there is actually a tremendous amount of truth to that (which is why I know I'm really NOT crazy in that sense LOL)..I get the fact that a true lunatic will deny, avoid, justify etc etc their insanity in any way possibly because they REALLY DON'T KNOW....BUT...how in the bloody hell does a person like that manage to function in life..How is it ppl like that don't end up in ICU because they've enraged any and everyone they come in contact with...and more than that...Could someone PLEASE tell me what they think a person like that sees when they look in the mirror each day? I mean do they lay in bed at night wondering why the world is so mean to them or why there are so many crazy ppl in the world or what?

Yes My Husband is one! LOL, I am used to it though, I have been married to him for 14 years. Sometimes you half to except people the way they are if you like or love the person, don't you agree?

Seems like most of them post here on myLot. I know a few people like this in real life. It just baffles me that they could be so out of it and not know it. And if you ask them why they are so out of it, they are the normal ones and we're just the messed up ones. Makes me wonder why I even bother to get out of bed some days.

No I can't say I know any really lunitic kind of people. Just normal sometimes crazy people. Nobody that I would have to worry about though.
