What Is Delirium?[edit]
Delirium is a mutation of madness, brought upon by sickness, delusion or drugs (sometimes all three) - it is also an altered state of being and can be viewed as a spiritual experience of deep significance if you are a New Age thinker.
Causes[edit]
Throughout history Delirium has been equal parts feared and revered by countless societies, with some viewing it as a gift from the gods and others viewing it as demonic possession or alien invasion: in modern times science has come up with a more far-fetched theory that Delirium is caused by a common and severe neuropsychiatric syndrome.
Effects[edit]
Delirium is both a blessing and a curse to humanity, though it has been seen in almost all animal species and even inanimate objects such as cars and computers - even trees have been shown to exhibit Delirium, mostly be eyewitnesses who have also been suffering from Delirium and thus are the most qualified to diagnose the condition.
Pro-Delirium[edit]
Many people try to induce temporary Delirium in order to produce "highs" and "lows" - or even what some would call "trips" - use of drugs is a prime example of this, unless you are Rastafarian - in which case smoking pot is a religious experience (seriously, we're not making that one up).
Pro-Reality[edit]
On the other end of the spectrum however we have had many people throughout history try to repress Delirium, fearing that such a state of being is detrimental to the reality in which we live in - critics point out however that reality is often infinitely more fucked up than anything Delirium can produce, this doesn't stop pro-reality groups from kicking up a fuss however whenever the topic is put up for debate.
