Many of you have asked for a video on schizophrenia over the years. Well, I'll dive into that a bit in my next video, "When a Philosopher Goes Insane."

Insanity is an escape from truth, so what does it mean that Nietzsche's philosophy is obsessed with madness? And why does so much philosophy itself resemble a form of psychosis?

See you soon ;)

As a schizophrenic who's been going to therapy for 7 years, I'm excited to see your take on the matter, especially when looking at different kinds such as paranoia, hallucinatory, the mix of both and such.

Fortunately I don't have schizophrenia but I am looking forward on your take on this subject. Every video is a masterpiece.

As someone whose consciousness has been fraught by various psychological disorders and an indomitable philosophical curiosity, I am very much looking forward to this video. 😀

I’ve had one psychotic episode in my life. And I’m glad to have had it, because it gave me a true window into how it feels to experience the symptoms (positive and negative) of schizophrenia, and just how debilitating it would be to have psychotic episodes on a regular basis. I’m excited for the video but I truly hope you do sufficient research ^^

Nietzsche was likely a narcissist, a known mental illness of its own. Part of me wonders why our culture finds so much value in what he has to say, but then I remember that our entire society is descending into narcissism, so I guess it makes sense. I don't think that's a good thing, though

Hey Clark would you ever do a video on Deleuze and his “schizoanalysis” method?

@kangaroocaliphate1577

I saw some reel that went like "how these two books gave me psychosis" (in reference to the meth philosopher Nick Land) and I just found it really gross. Have seen my mom go through psychosis as well as some friends but those were temporary. A close friend of mine however has a sister with severe schizophrenia and I cannot for the life of me think of a reason why psuedo intellectuals romanticize such afflictions. I'd rather be a "normie" or whatever ego inflated midwits call it.
