okay i am half way there…

No disrespect to Al-Ghazali Psyah Bahi;

But I disagree with the detailed and yet in itself flawed definition.

First of all it is not a definition purely by itself, it is a comparison between stupidity and insanity.

and;

How do we know that the intention of insane person is not sound?

The means of realizing it are defective in both kind of people.

Both choose what should not be chosen.

Hence the basis of the decision and 'preferences' are same in both.

For a person to be called insane and not be labled merely as stupid, the same act must be performed consistently and irrationally.

A stupid person has temporary insanity by what I understand.

Also, stupid is just a lighter term and insanity is more of a heavy and serious term.

Re: Insanity

On ocassion talking to self is not insanity.

Any one who lacks the sound judgement and reasoning can be considered insane especially if his actions lead to self harm or others.

25

Yes talking to yourself is a 1st sign of insanity but its not 100% true bcoz many geniuses are called abnormal due to some of their habits. I ve practical experience but can't share it here.
If a person who talk himself remains alone he/she will be entered in insanity but if he/she is social then he/she will not be completely Psycho. But most of the woman are the victim of insanity and there can be many reasons but if the depression remains their she will not be sustained.

So if you see these symptoms in any one just try to change his/her routine and try to mingle him in ppls else it ll be too late.

okay first of all this is not a funny question .

I believe that it's paranoia as it leads to many many complications with others and with one's own self too.

I agree with what diwana has posted.

27

  • Belief that ones work/thoughts are terribly important
  • Obsession about something/someone upto the point irrationality. (But ofcourse, the insane thinks it to be absolutely rational)

Re: Insanity

slam all,
i had been the student of psychology, i have read that sometimes there are many signs but sometimes a peson becomes the victom of it abruptly.
there are always reasons for it, sometimes the person's mind can't match up with his/her envoirenment, sometimes parent's behaviour become the cause of it.
the reason is whatever behind it but i think u better can understand from an example, a glass of water is already filled but you add more water so excessive will drain out. same is the case with insane that all unhappy incidents stores in his sub concious & when they over flow means a person cn't bear them any more he become insane.
