I'm thinking a lot about this topic and obviously can't put it in the right words, or I just don't have the time to. The thoughts that I'm trying to put together some of which have been talked about here in different topics but again, I don't have the time to source them.
The idea that I have is that crazy is not a well defined condition to those being accused of it. One female once posted in another forum during a back and forth argument that crazy people tend to get under other crazy people skin. Which would imply that they go back and forth driving each other crazy. What I find is that the only thing that get people from calling each other crazy and going into conflict is common interest. And when that happens these people feel normal.
I know there are certain type of crazies that have a hard time functioning to the level that they can't even take care of themselves or be around people much but, those are just the obvious ones.
Because I have been trying to figure things out a lot, specially the people around me, who does what, what they believe and why, it seems more and more that crazy is a found of coping with life's issues; ie. someone is in situation they can't manage, feel stuck or pressured and they desperately need to get out of but knows no other way out. These people end up loosing it and become a disfunctional crazy. This crazy people now will be singled out but, he or she is not the only one. This movie Gothica with Halle Berry comes to mind as an example.
Believe it or not these kind of things are happening all around us and for ages at different levels of people behaving one way that is detrimental to another person, leaving said person to find extreme measures trying to cope with what's being done or have been done to them.
Society now blame and label that person as crazy but, not the other who push him/her to that mental state.
The bottom line is everybody has a reason for being crazy, whether is small or big, and a lot more people are crazy then just the obvious ones.
