Madness: 2004, #2

By FERDINANDO FREGA

According to a study by World Psychiatry, 20% of all humanity has psychiatric problems.

The symptoms are often not treated, as the patient tends to hide his real condition.

No madman will claim to be one.

Madness cannot be studied, but it can be cured, the only element that truly brings men together.

The same doctor, during the treatment phase, almost never uses the same protocol for each patient, there are no identical diseases, but there are different patients.

The attempts are aimed at evaluating the treatments and understanding whether the one implemented is the right one.

A writer who talks about madness can only do so for one reason: seeing others, in their manifestations, leads him to an introspective analysis of the individual.

The confirmed pathology associates us with her, and we can never distance her.

MADNESS

It is a condition that limits you in everything you could do and do, and if you are lucky enough to have someone around you who understands it, you find yourself in the room of a good psychiatrist who finally helps you.

In the various evolutions of man there are also diseases, medicine has made giant strides in this, together with pharmacology with total support, therapy with targeted and indefinite tools and instruments, the flagship that few professionals can boast.

People who every morning is ready to all have the same goal, but their self-sacrifice fortunately lasts even 24 hours, in thinking about how to treat the patient and alleviate his anxieties.

But who is the crazy one? Many things are said, men of excessive intelligence who have no longer been lucky enough to maintain a balance, or men who following a trauma have not been able to remove it and without treatment have thought of doing it themselves, or those disturbed who have a centered drug therapy but they know they have to lie to themselves too, so as not to see some exemptions limited.

One morning I thought about looking at myself, I didn't even have time to open my eyes and I received the first verbal attack, made up of shouting and always railing against her, almost as if she wanted to hurt me, not even for an hour which was repeated with other languages and other themes, and always like this throughout the day for eight months.

Finally, I have made an appointment for you with the Psychiatrist, but I will not come, he will see you anyway and will certainly increase your drug therapy.

I could not understand if I have not twisted his neck for eight months, like you do with chickens, because of the drug therapy I have or if instead I have become accommodating and good.

Technically maybe I should have gone crazy a while ago, but I want to think about living by the sea and the iodine helps me keep calm and calm things down nicely and continue doing what is most important to me in my life: write.

The thing that pains me the most, in an absolute sense, is losing credibility, and being told that everything that is produced is the result of my madness and that I only do wrong things, a solid list of many failures, without any victory. How is it possible???

Rationally I should run away and leave, even to a new house 100 meters away, not exactly abroad, take back my ideas, my habits and my things in saying that I was only crazy for a period, I'm taking back my life, but finances still don't allow me because up until now I have continued to get robbed, believing that my humanitarian mission is exclusive, but unfortunately the reality is another which has left me with empty pockets.

To you who are hoping for my return, I am almost ready, not much left now, just a big sigh and saying that I am coming back.

ENZA

I saw you from afar and noticed that you were holding a stick in your hands, your years had not affected you, you were still a beautiful woman a few years older.

Seeing you walk I realized that you had not lost the grace and style that you had imported many years ago from the efforts of your parents, to help you grow in that splendid land that goes by the name of Palmi.

But I could read something from your gaze, an absence felt after 62 years of living together: Francesco. This staff who had taught you many things, to grow but not too much, jealous as he was of everyone and who always kept you within the walls of his home.

He loved you so much, and it was reciprocated, you were a beautiful couple, envied by everyone, respected by everyone, but not for everyone.

Always doing something for your children, in addition to keeping you busy, brought your spontaneous help in being a mother, where it did not matter, but being present always and everywhere.

From Grandma Nina's character, you have that frowny look you get when there is something you do not like.

Only a few know your nervous reactions, which you have always spent indoors, away from curious eyes; Even crying was among these reserves, which you always had and never showed.

Your judgment is silent, just three words to say a five-line sentence; University students should study this technique and we would waste less time achieving goals and cutting unnecessary ones.

The little word behind your hand is one of your characteristics, it means let me talk but mind your own business.

No one will ever be able to force you to do what you do not want, we've all always known this, and only stupid people have tried.

Forgive me for these little reflections of mine made by a boy with the body of an adult, and the brain linked to the heart, only feelings express emotions and this is my gift to you.

THE EVICTION!

It is a topic I have already covered, but I never get tired of talking about it.

The first steps are taken in the family, where the attentive mother decides who to associate with and who not, and who, despite the rights of family, friendship, and neighborhood, must be removed.

But in the restyling operations another point that is at once touched upon are the husband's friends and one's own friends. With your husband it is extremely easy, just focus on issues of respect, loyalty, things that needed to be done, convince him to distance himself even from his best friends, just do not get into conflict with the mother of your children.

Women on the other hand are very strange in friendships, their quarrelsome nature makes them come into conflict with little, and therefore they manage time like a rubber band, I will see you when I can.

But age differences also contribute to estrangement because there are different dimensions and times and the demands make life in solitude less difficult, a presence that often disturbs.

Philosophy in these cases states: I see you when I want.

The most difficult transition stays
