The internet gives us a strange window into other people's internal state. Kinda crazy to watch other people develop an obsession that takes them across the line to delusion or mental illness in real time. Terrifying because I'm prone to obsessive behavior and it has definitely happened to me before.

Mental illness is often a temporary state. People can and do get better from obsession driven bouts of mental illness. As someone who has experience with this, regular contact with people who treat you like a human being is critical to the path back.

We, myself included, should keep that in mind when we run into people who are having a hard time. There is plenty of reason for their struggles in the Bitcoin space lately.
