Psychosis. A phenomena so common that it would make one lose perspective of the concept of sanity looking at the world around. People are plagued with maladies: some innate, some behavioral and others having physical manifestations. The root of a symptom could be something seemingly unconnected. I'm surprised at the number of people I meet who have problems and by problems I imply real problems that deter their functioning as individuals and curb the spontaneity and honesty of their actions as a result of some discomfort associated with their natural tendencies.
These discomforts could be a result of mental conditioning or the Freudian idea of the subconscious. I like the nomenclature of this word sub=under the conscious. It makes it sound like the undercurrent of all our active thoughts, emotions, and actions.
It opens an almost infinite realm of possibilities of human behavior! If one notices closely, the behavior of most individuals, they demonstrate psychosis in some form or another; however obtuse it may be. Minor forms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Eating disorder, Sexual Disorders, Depression, anxiety which are all products of the occasional (or not so occasional) tendency for humans to slip into their weaknesses.
Particularly dangerous, in my opinion, are suppressed emotions. They build up inside like a volcano and if they don't find natural outlets through natural emotions at the natural time... they may burst out through other exits... causing the seemingly disconnected symptoms that I spoke of. Dangerous because untimely release of emotion through an unexpected mode only shows the dearth in human control over his or her own psychological framework.
The ideal solution is the truth and nothing but the truth.
