Can there be Genius without Madness?

And we see this on social media, often where people can exhibit a behavior that seems very damaging. But there also can be a point where some people can see that as courageous and brave and genius. So I ask, all of you, is there really a huge margin or line between genius and madness? Are they both intertwined in some sort of way

Different levels of genius are discussed, join the conversation. #genius #mentalhealth #art

And sure enough, it might come with some side effects. And the problem, I think, is that we, as society don't accept those side effects more than other side effects. Really a problem. I think they're really only a problem if those side effects cause harm to themselves or people around them

Should we redefine "madness?" @shammi

We do have a certain level in which how we see society and how people act in society. So, for instance, madness is a vague term, right? There's plenty of mental disorders out there and personality disorders out there that could be misconstrued as madness, so to speak, my son, for instance, he's on the autistic spectrum. Some parents out there may kind of consider him a bit odd or I don't know, mad in some cases, I don't know. Maybe not
