I have been crazy for a long time, most of my life. Others have seen this with me. I remember calling my manager at work and telling him I am in a psych hospital for a month. That was not easy. I have really hurt people and have done impulsive and risky things. I am crazy, but I have been working on that by getting on the right meds.

I look back to some of the crazy things that I have done, like going eighty miles an hour, and slowing down just a little to swing back and forth between the cars in traffic who were going 55 mph. I have purposely sailed through storms, twice having me think that this just may be it for me. I was very lucky. I was actually getting a reputation about being the crazy one who sails through storms, the stronger the better. I am leaving the marina when others were coming back to avoid the storm.

BTW I think there is nothing wrong with calling ourselves crazy, as long as we keep focused on our worth to ourselves and others.
