    The definition of insanity is continually doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result.

    Do you have any definitions of insanity and what it means to you?

    I think insanity is the continuous horror of a plumbers crack.

    Please define your theory.


    Thank you

      lmao well if thats insanity then I think  a whole lot of people are I mean we are after all humans and we sometimes take a bit of time learning things whether it be making the same mistake 5 7 or 10 times before we finally go OHHHHHHH DUH!! haha! some people learn quicker then others and some people learn it right away.. so I think calling someone or labeling them something for whatever reason is wrong.. we all learn in our own way=)

      I prefer insanity to normality.

      For me insanity is the best state of mind.

    Can we learn if our behavior relates to insanity.

    I also think insanity is the number of posts I have made in the forums.  That's Insane!!!!!!

    A cycle of repetition that can't be broken by choice or chance.  Always having to be at the same place at the same time.  Or Doing things that you don't like with people that you can't stand.

        lol.. I think that sort of runs along the same lines of them tv shows that they play on tv dont ya think? ya know the ones where they have the groups of people and one by one they get eliminated until theres one left who gets the guy or girl? even when I was younger I couldnt help but think to myself is this what humanity has been reduced to? is people thinking they can find REAL love like this? just weird I mean what happened to good old fashioned ways anymore ya know where you really get to know someone for quite a while and mutual feelings develop... chemistry and friendship.. seems some people just want to jump to the first thing they feel.. hah that didnt sound right but whatever you know what I mean LOL

    The word insanity to me means  it is a state of mind where someone is not responsible for what he or she has done, this is in the legal sense used, when someone does something illegal, and is let off on the ground of "insanity".In other words, the Judge finds that the person was not physically aware of what they were doing at the time and there not responsible for the crime.
    In the medical sense, it is a psychotic problem where a person can't detemine the difference between what is and isn't real. These people  often have problems with hallucinations: which are when they see and hear things that are not really there. An example would be : hearing voices, or thinking bugs are crawling on them when they are not. People with hallucinations believe that the things they are seeing are real and react in a way as if they are real. This is a pretty straight forward idea of insanity in my book  Beautybabe.
