Dear My Fear 此致我的恐懼

Perception, cognition, definition, recollection, association, emotion.

Perception shapes cognition, definition molds memory, and association ignites emotion. Yet cognition confines definition, memory frames association, and emotion filters perception.

Riding on the crest of mania, I feel incredible — invincible. Yet depression and anxiety always follow, pulling me back into their undertow. Surfing between the waves of manic and depression, my emotions are distorted, my cognitions are deceived, and my associations are manipulated.

A thick, unrelenting filter beclouds over my senses, reshaping the world before me.

Nothing looks ever the same.

Begins with the raw recollections of an artist in recovery, and concludes with the clinical insight from a psychiatrist, here is the rare glimpse into the fractured yet vivid landscapes of the mind.

感知、認知、定義、記憶、聯想、情緒。

是感知構成認知,是定義塑造記憶,是聯想掀起情緒。

亦是認知規限了定義,是記憶框架了聯想,是情緒過濾了感知。

躁期讓我自覺無所不能欲罷不能,然而抑鬱和焦慮總隨即應約而至。在兩極之間拉扯掙扎,強迫症和躁鬱症肆意撩動情緒,矇騙認知,安插聯想,讓我戴上了一層厚重的濾鏡。

從此,我看見的世界不再一樣。

以復元藝術家第一身記憶始,以精神科醫生專業作結,窺探精神疾病的視點。
