“Who are you?”
When delusion is limited with the aid of medication perceptions once enjoyed no longer exist. Therefore a life without delusion no longer accepts the very experiences that at one time defined that life. Consequently the relationships that were born of delusion must be rebuilt. It’s fair to assume, that once reconstructed, they will not mirror any previous state of mind. The loss of the unreal creates a need to reconstruct what is real and it is accomplished more so by necessity than choice.
Being able to experience both delusion and hallucination then recounting the experience from a normal vantage point is indeed interesting, but not a solution. It’s merely an intellectual exercise that documents what the beholder knows, or thinks about while knowing. All of which is lacking in validity until someone agrees upon the conclusions.
The act of documentation without action remains no more than an interesting exercise in introspection. Action being the ongoing effort to maintain a mental, physical and social balance of the acceptable kind.
