Case Trafford Publishing, 2006 "Valid thought is highly prized in the realm of serious mental illness. The ideas and thoughts that one has that are true, are more valuable than mainstream society can imagine. Truth is an observable fact of reality. Imagination can be fun. However, when truth and imagination are mixed with unyielding belief in their conjoined accuracy, trouble surmounts. This phenomenon is a perplexing facet of life. That is, a life affected by schizophrenia." ...             Paranoid's Guide to Them (An Invisible book)1 review Doug Stoyevsky Macmillan Pub Co, 1982 They obviously don't want you to read this book...
