I try to make my "crazy"serve my "sane"---I've gotten pretty good at it. Since I don't use it all that often, it's pretty effective.

You KNOW there is a crazy lurking within you tom? I thought crazies never knew they were. So how does that work? If I have a crazy within how do I recognize it? Crazy scares me so maybe my crazy knows that and is lying low. Thank you for your reply. Could you give me an example of how your crazy serves your sane so I'll know if mine does the same? :)
Not living inside me, just a costume and a act that I can perform at will. Mostly it's an intensity that I cathect when useful. Adults who were psychologically abused as children have gotten good at manipulation once they have recovered. We've been taught by experts after all.
Ah. I see said she. An act. A costume you can remove at will when it suits you. Here's something puzzling to me tom. It seems to me if you or anyone were psychologically abused wouldn't you go the other way and NEVER manipulate anyone psychologically or otherwise? Often the children of alcoholics never touch a drop. On the other hand I have read that pedophiles were often sexually abused as children so they are warped and become the same as those who abused them. It's confusing and complicated isn't it?Thank you for your reply m'dear! :)
