Wish I did, but I don’t. Your e-book would be most welcome. All first hand experiences of psychosis add to our understanding of their variety and personal toll on lives.
I do. Although I have no idea how a short autobiographical account of psychosis should look like.
Perhaps of what it did look like, to me. Maybe… a stormy background, of course not too detailed, and some hilltop with someone being crucified upside down. I’m just saying. If not, well, I don’t know.
Not quite a stormy background but I let my imagination run loose:
Pretty cool, thank you. I’ve seen this concept art before, of the broken person with the body separated by squares, it seems to be a common theme for mental illness. I don’t know if its something I’m looking for since its so common, but I’ll consider it. Aside from that, you have some good talent, what program did you use?
Photoshop but the magic is done with a tablet really
I’ve removed the excerpt from scribd as viewable by all for a couple reasons:
- Its not indicative of the quality of writing that it is now, since I have revised it immensely.
- I plan on selling the story.
I’ll buy a copy. Check with Nah who has an excellent sense of how to render concepts in diagrams.
Awesome I’ll let you know when its ready
Septimus, I have decided to use your cover in my ebook. Let me know if you are ok with this. Thanks,
Eagerly anticipating your E-book. You have much to say that needs to be heard.
Thanks Irrellus, the book is done. I should say it is more strictly memoirs with analysis throughout. Most of what was posted here is still there, with some editing and I should say that is probably half of the book what you already read. Here is the link. I’d appreciate if you all can put any reviews on it and click “Like”!

You will need this if you want to read it on a PC I believe:
WW_II_Angry, do you think you could post a link to the posts that are going to be refered to in the book?
Hmm, I’m not sure what you mean exactly. This is mainly memoirs of my personal experience, most of which those posts would be in this thread.
Gotcha.
I just got done reading this whole thread, and I am a bit in shock. A lot of clarity by most people, but espacially the one who theoretically should have least (WW_III_Angry).
I am now really looking forward to the book, but with a kind of forboding, like when I pick up a Nietzsche book (though the comparison may seem absurd).
Or maybe I am just a little scared that I might identify with some of the things there.
Anyway, see you after the jump.
Wow thanks, but it is a very easy and quick read, I’ll guarantee you won’t want to stop and it is not as complicated as Neitzsche. In any case let me know if you can put up a review if you get it, I sure do need some, I have no reviews yet!
My memory is not too good nowadays and my computer suffers from the same senility. Did you give the title of your E-book and name of author? I wan’t to buy hard copy–something I can hold and peruse. Is that possible? I’m fascinated by what I’ve read and firmly believe that such books, first-hand experience, are needed. I think your work is marketable.
The title is “Memoirs of madness”, by Christopher Markowski. It will be available in print one day, but that would probably not be for another 18 months to two years possibly, as I am considering my options before I sign the print to order paperback deal.
Here is the link for the e book.

. -----lets go back to “authority” . Splits come from the integration of authority whether it be parental or societal. Preoccupation with a toner for a philosopher is more than just a minor inconvenience. Its shows a break, (and there are breaks even in depressive episodes) the by now mute question that can be raised is -can philosophy transcend the cognitive-affective break? And as a consequence become a beacon to others, rather than becoming an Avatar?
