Crazy or Not?

I guess I'd call it Schizophrenia if the people aren't normal. If they are I'd call it plain stupidity.

I have never thought of this before hmmm you have s very good point maybe it is delusion I am religious so I do not think it is dillusion

My son has just gotten a pony, he was standing there telling him about his other pony he had. Along with explaining what he was wanting the pony to do and why he had the whip with him. He also will talk to a toy pony he has, thou she does need repairing currently as my sons dog ripped part of it and it's his favourite soft toy. But there's nothing wrong with having a friend to talk to, even it you can't see them.

I think that as a child you have inaginary friends. As for adults I think that we have all come past that imaginary friend thing. Now as a wife of a schizophrenic who has Friends around him all the time it is considered a mental illness. Most people object to the word crazy being used. Religion has nothing to do with this as people believe that there is a person on the other end that you will eventually meet. And delusions are another thing. They are all classified in different ways.

Man... this is you know an out of the blue kind of topic you have come up with, interesting with lots of confusion and surely it does give a person a lot to think about. You know children would have imaginary friends to talk to and play with... and when they grow as adults they are taught to pray with god and all that, parents also have as much of an imaginary friend as their child do! The only difference is, the imaginary friend the parents have is god. Its a really huge open topic.

Who says a imaginary friend is a hallucination just imagination? Sorry but I don't agree with your. There are people, esp. kids who do have a friend you can't see but who really exist even if it's not in the human-being-alive-state you know. I call this normal. The soul/ghost exists in many different shapes. Those who are open to it can see it and there is nothing wrong with having your friends in this group as well.

I got it! Everybody has an imaginary when we were just a kid, but at this age? I think that's not normal. You know what I meant by this. But as long as you know that you are sane, that's okay. Well, good luck to your endeavors.

I haven't encountered one, but a friend told me about someone who has been seeing and talking to an imaginary friend in their house. No one in the house actually sees whom she was talking with, but she was saying it was a good dwarf that's trying to be friends with her. Well, it's kinda odd and scary at the same time - I don't know whether to believe in such. I don't also know whether it can be called a hallucination or she's getting crazy. But she's not crazy in fact she's doing well and married with 3 kids now

delusion? it is hard to belive coz i never have such imagiary. i dont know to comment this, but human sometime has someone in their mind

First of all, welcome back to myLot. This sounds interesting, may people has common imaginary friends. It sounds to my like a religious belief.

Interesting perspective. But it makes you an atheist. Well, for a moment let us not dwell religiously but psychologically. Why do kids have an imaginary friend? So they can have a constant companion, a friend always there, with them. Such is the case of man. While man is going through his journey of life,he needs a companion, someone to believe in, to guide him. So he has God with Him. Na, I am not advocating the presence or absence of God, for people may give thousands of reasons for and against. But what I am trying to say is that God is also very much a psychological need of the human. They need Him. And talking about delusion. How can be sure what wwe are seeing through our eyes is not a delusion? Maybe the whole world is like the movie matrix and the whole world is delusional.. Eastern philosophy says everything is an illusion. Maybe it is right. So we are in no state to differenciate illusion, delusion or reality for everything in this world is relative . But if most of us believe in something , let us believe it with faith.
