I've been in a mental hospital before and saw something very similar to this as I went to get my breakfast.

Dude was nice, psychotic(once you got over his horrifying face, his mind was a mess, his sentences were only a bit related to what he was trying to say, but he was not a bad person at all- You could figure his meaning out after listening to him for a while. It was one of the most tragic states of having to live I had ever seen, and that was his own opinon. Without this affliction, he'd have been a major figure in history.) and an addict, but I hope he's doing better now.

A major figure in history? Interesting, are you inferring that’s he extremely intelligent and aware? Possibly even physically built well? Maybe charismatic in his own way, potentially even handsome had he not been ill? That statement honestly goes hard. Like your among few people in the world that knows about this one unfortunate soul who could have been a larger-than-life world changing person reduced to a sick man in a mental hospital. That’s like if Alexander the Great never became great and was instead born a hunchbacked man with a stutter, endless potential but limited by factors out of his control. That’s sad.
