    My delusional phenomena

    That delusional phenomena that I experienced looks very similar to Fregoli Syndrome, but it's not Fregoli Syndrome, I don't know how to accurately call it, it wasn't prosecutory in nature. When I had severe communication delays, I believed that no one has facial expressions and thought that...

    Depression and acceptance

    Hello blog, it's been a while. Last time I posted an update I had just gone through a mini-psychotic break and I had just been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Today I will be ranting a little, rather than posting clever and/or insightful and/or funny things. No grand things have happened to me...

    The life-saving search for beauty of creative people

    Sopranos and tenors always make my soul soar. Right now, the owner of the incredible voice that I’m listening to is Katherine Jenkins. There’s magic in the melody, but there’s something even transcendental when one understand the lyrics. French, Italian, Spanish, and even English, transmit a...
