- “Every Insane Mind Tells a Story Too Loud to Ignore.”
We all have days when our thoughts won’t stop racing, when sleep feels impossible, or when the world seems too loud to bear.
Insanity” isn’t a medical term, but it’s often used to describe a state where someone loses touch with reality. This could mean hearing voices, believing things that aren’t true, or feeling trapped inside thoughts they can’t escape.
In medical language, it can show up as conditions like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, severe depression, or psychosis.
