Maybe Some Compassion Would Help
February 2, 2023If you’ve ever been tempted to think of hearing voices and of “psychosis” as just something medically going wrong with one’s brain, I can think of nothing better than a recently released video to convince you otherwise!
In an awesome performance linked to below, Ren dramatizes a battle between himself and an apparently evil voice that seems bent on tearing him down. It progresses into an amazing intensity, then a resolution or transcendence of the battle that may stun you with its humanity.
Anyway, check it out. Note that the first comment listed on YouTube contains the full lyrics.
