This presents some evidence that many past religious figures were mentally
ill at times.

On my Salmon on the Thorns website, http://www.nfld.com/~dalton/dtales.html ,
I document significant events and patterns in my mood cycles since 1991 and
compare them to those of some past figures. One key feature of my cycles is
an initial waning crescent mystic manic episode that culminated in a sun
stare, naked thorn hill climb, and blue rose vision, in early September,
1991. Then from 1992 to 1994 I had four waxing gibbous moon trials, and three
of them were followed 5.5 lunar months later by waning crescent hypomanias.
In early 1996 low/wilderness years began, and they are not over yet, though
while I am on medication they are not too low except in terms of creativity.
And on that website I present some evidence that I am similar to Taliesin,
Amergin, Lleu, Fintan, Myrddin, Adonis, Dionysus, the Havamal 138--141
composer, Quetzalcoatl, Glooskap, the Iowa Dakota Salmon youth, Rama,
Krishna, Buddha, the Turquoise Bee, Jacob, Moses, and Jesus, which implies
that they were similar to one another.

I edited the web page slightly tonight, updating the Recent Changes
subpage and moving entries that were in it from 2013 to July, 2018
to the last subsubpage of the Biography/mystic experiences subpage.
