Psychotic Nation

What's so Psychotic?

Have you ever feel like you have always been "the eternal freak"? Well, I'm a 25 year old Chilean woman, and, as most of people would, I feel like I don't fit anywhere around here. One day, walking down the street, (I was on my way for signing on the electoral service... yes, I decided to be "a citizen"), I looked around and I saw a bunch of peolple, walking on the street, coming from "everywhere", going "no-where", and vice/versa, expending all their energy on their everyday life stuff, whatever it means, without noticing anything else but themselves, non caring for anyone else also... then I thought: Do I belong here? well, I don't think so, (sub-thought: Should I move to another country? should it make any difference? -I don't think so either), then- I thought- I should live on my own nation... ok, but that nation does not exists, that is completely out of reality, then that's kind of a psychosis...ok, so be it, let's create a Psychothic Nation, besides, it sounds kind of cool, innit? ok, so now that we are here, I invite you to be part of this nation, to be a "citizen", a psycho-citizen. Who knows if we can do better than our governors out there!

Me, Myself and I... can I call them Jack?

He estado leyendo casos de Múltiple Personalidad y hay un hecho notable: la segunda personalidad, la rara, la loca, la "patológica", es la que hace más feliz al individuo en cuestión y a su entorno, y generalmente es una personalidad con características que la persona ha tendido a reprimir. Me recuerda la interpretación que la escuela de frankfurt heredó de la santísima trinidad Marx/Nietsche/Freud, donde la personalidad del individuo está determinada por la Superestructura, a saber, Estructuras de Poder, Mecanismos de Control Social, Imagos Parentales, Instituciones Sociales, y su contraparte inconciente: Super Yo, etc.
Me recuerda también cierta etapa por la que todos pasamos, tarde o temprano, (no somos tan originales unos de otros), donde descubrimos quiénes somos y qué queremos detrás de todos los "deber ser" que heredamos de nuestra interacción con el medio. Al parecer tenemos que luchar por encontrarnos al fondo de bastantes discursos aprendidos y empezar a escribir el nuestro.
