I am not a psychiatrist or anyone else with formal psychological/psychiatric training, but I've speculated before that maybe the mindset of unmedicated schizophrenics and other hallucinatory or delusional people might be similar to the minds of normal people having dreams. You know the dreams that seem to make sense while you're dreaming, but as soon as you wake up you realize how impossible they were? "I dreamt I was visiting my friends the day their daughter started first grade, then I remembered this little first-grader was also my own former first-grade teacher from back in the day" .... the part of my brain that understands "There is absolutely no way a modern six-year-old can also be the now-elderly retired schoolteacher who taught me when I was six" obviously isn't functioning in my dreams, just as the part of the brain that understands "Sayiing you won't make friends with anyone unless they provide you with a fuckmate less than half your age is NOT the way to achieve any social success" clearly isn't functioning with Lucas. And that genuinely isn't his "fault," anymore than it's your "fault" or mine that when we dream, a lot of those dreams are crazy-impossible.
