   I was at a fast-food burger joint about a month ago eating my low-carb   
   burger and I saw there a sweet-looking man, perhaps in his early 40s, who   
   was "responding to internal stimuli," as they say, in the center of the   
   room.  ("They" meaning healthcare professionals, say that when they mean   
   actively hallucinating or otherwise acting out due to psychosis.)  It was   
   dinnertime and the restaurant was very busy.  Many of the customers were   
   elderly on that particular evening.  I was quite fascinated as I observed   
   out of the corner of my eye not so much the strange activities of the   
   mentally ill man, but the way the restaurant patrons carefully negotiated   
   their way around him.  Of course no one sat near him.  No one even looked at   
   him.  They had companions and conversations to attend to and they seemed   
   uninterested.  Certainly no one walked up to him and asked if he had   
   forgotten to take his meds.  No one mocked him by duplicating his movements   
   or noises.   
      
   I will admit to having laughed once or twice after reading a response to   
   raving here, but mostly I think such comments are generally mean-spirited   
   and not much fun.
