More Confusion.

I keep coming across videos on YouTube which tell me that my current mental torment – both internal and in relation to the world around me – is a perfectly normal part of experiencing the dark night of the soul. What is actually happening, I’m told, is that I am awakening spiritually and therefore on the way to enlightenment.

Well, that’s encouraging I suppose. It might even be right. But what none of the videos are telling me is whether my persistent desire to experience baked Alaska is part of the process, or whether it indicates authentic insanity and I should check into a clinic.
