On delusion

I have tried to be honest on this blog, even if the personal disclosure has been awkward or indiscreet.

Here is another possibly indiscreet disclosure. I have been told by a psychiatrist that I may be delusional. One of my delusions is that I may have written successful but somewhat angry lyrics as a teenager put to music by a band.

I said to one psychiatrist that I may just have identified so much with some pop lyrics that I started to believe I wrote them. She seemed to nod in agreement.

I am not delusional now. Only “delusions to the past” as R.B. Sheridan wrote.
