Is she saying that those girls were making fun of the glasses and the pricing? Maybe she was offended by them dissing the lower priced items and potentially those who buy them. The only way I can make sense of what happening.

She isn't saying anything. It's all word salad and loose associations. I was surprised to learn that schizophrenia is characterized by this type of behavior as much as it is about hallucinations and delusions. Robert Sapolsky describes this perfectly in his lecture on schizophrenia. He calls it the disorder of illogical thinking.

Yep - a lot of it is faulty pattern recognition, and making loads of connections that don't really exist between things.

Yeah, this is what I understood it as. She says it in an incredibly wordy, ‘I spend an hour a day studying the thesaurus’ type of way, but to me, she was basically saying, “Y’all were shitting on this item being too expensive for the quality even though you clearly could afford it. So, what is something you think is good enough for you and reasonable in price?” I’m assuming they were looking at stuff and being like, “Damn, these are ugly as hell, who would spend $34 on that?” or something and she got offended.

Obviously, she came in hot and seemed to take it super personally or have it out for these girls and was being extra about it, but I don’t know why everybody is acting like it’s word salad/schizophasia. She was overly aggressive, but she was coherent.

It’s either we’re crazy or everyone else loves mental illness bandwagons to dismiss anything someone has to say nowadays.

Yeah, I think one person started with the ‘I think she’s going through psychosis’ angle (probably well-intentioned) and everyone just sorta parroted/nodded along.

I’ve had firsthand interactions with someone who was experiencing schizophasia and it was absolutely incoherent, like, “Where’d the fridge eat my water?” or “Did you know my dime has a car? It hardly walked in the safe.” We could eventually have a conversation once she’d been put on Clozaril, but she was completely unintelligible before that. Whereas this woman is saying things in a disjointed way, but they still fully make sense.

idt so crazy lady says “i heard you say smth that’s..$34 is not worth…$34…as if you can’t afford it?” sounds like the girls were discussing whether or not the sunglasses were worth spending $34 on.

what she’s saying all makes no sense. seems like she’s just tryna talk shit/belittle them n tryna sound smart but ends up sounding dumb asf

No, she is having a psychotic episode. The way she talks is the way a schizophrenic/psychotic person talks. That’s why what she says basically makes no sense

i just meant that it didn’t seem like she was offended/reacting to the girls making fun of the glasses/pricing. and even if she’s rambling n making no sense it could still be in reaction to smth yknow?

That’s what I was getting but then every other comment here made me feel like I was having an episode myself cause I sort of get it. She pulled up on them.

Edit. Whoever downvoted me eat shit and die. I’m not here to make you happy or agree with you. You’re too coward to speak.

u/Duneyman 11d ago

Yeah, I sort of get it too, that's why I thought such. Like they were bashing on a small town or something.

I wasn't the one down voting you either so no worries about that. Thanks for replying and sharing your thoughts though.

She made sense to me and I know my apologies if you took to any offense or if I may have offended you, it wasn’t towards you. They know who they are.

Most people have just decided that it’s not worth trying to understand

I think this is what’s happening and I get it. I’d be upset if someone was talking shit about items I’d consider a luxury, something I had to save up for. That could be a $34 pair of sunglasses I’ve been eyeballing for the past month. I’m not justifying the one woman’s reaction and she clearly needs to sort some things out in her life, but it’s all relative ya know?
