That is most troubling
There could be millions of 'em roaming about while the staff jibber away in their padded cells, unable to convince anybody of the truth.
The more I think about people I know, the more this seems plausible.

I've been to visit someone on
a nut ward - I really didn't know who was an inmate, a jailer or a visitor

Did you see that programme on BBC the other night called 'Madness on the motorway'?
All about Swedish twin sisters who ran across the M6 two years ago then a couple of days later one of them stabbed some man. Both of them were temporarily insane. The one who did the stabbing seemed a bit odd but sane.

I think a friend of mine has that 'folie a deux' with her mum
My other friend's dad (a psychiatric something or other)explained it to us ages ago and it all made sense. If you didn't know her, you'd think she was schizophrenic, but it's just that growing up with her mum, she's come to accept that demons and hearing voices and ghosts being able to physically harm you is all 'normal'.

And yes, that documentary was crazeh.
