Rowens- Haha no ass kicking needs to be done. I feel like I have a love-hate relationship with the romantic elements of something like schizoaffective. I admit every time I got lost in the deep end of visual / auditory hallucinations / down the delusion rabbit hole; it was meaningful, romantic, enlightening in ways, and spiritual. To say that the perspective doesn't affect my writing, and music would be very narrow minded, just wrong.
I feel like my rub with it is for all that time living in that surreal reality, you lose sight of yourself, and your peers. It creates this dissonance within yourself; when your mind alters perception it is challenging (for me) to carry the weight of assumption based on subjectivity. All of this is within the contexts of a diagnosis, that is a cogitative irregularity, and can often be treated. For me that concept blurs the potential romantic element, when surreal encounters are (kind of / very loosely) explainable.
I ended up having to construct-deconstruct-rebuild from the ground up more then a couple times in multiple circumstances and contexts. I feel like for me there is a line of choosing what to internalize, and accept from these experiences. In a way they can open your mind, and enforce positive traits (ex: empathy, open-mindedness, artistic ideas, expression, modesty). There sometimes truths within my schiozaffective experiences, and lessons to learn. Though I feel like I apply them in hindsight, and overtime I apply those truths on how I interact internally and my community.
To sum up yet another mental-illness or neuro-divergent opinion. I think the perspective of a nuero-divergent artist / writer should be honored and validated. All inspiration can empower and shape art, and art without diversity is stale. I truly feel like all sides of a neuro-diverse perspective should have less stigma, and be approached on a more human level; not a condemnation but a layer of the human experience. Where there is acknowledgement for societal stability, accountability, and growth. As well as artistic appreciation for art in where mindset nurtures the idea.
Anyways, sorry if this reply is totally off topic or basis, and all of this is very very biased and my opinions.
also rowens, you get my wheels turning I like that about you and your writing aton. I had to look up kayfabe
"In professional wrestling, kayfabe, as a noun, is the portrayal of staged events within the industry as "real" or "true"
