I think when we get down to it, none of us can actually separate reality from imagination accurately - after all, our perceptions of reality all exist inside our minds and are informed by our imaginations. People who are outwardly crazy seem to be placing the line between reality and fantasy at a very different place to anyone else, but we all put the line in a slightly different place.
Compare people who believe in conspiracy theories, or horoscopes, or conflicting religions for instance. What I’m trying to say is that “crazy people” are not really so different from the rest of us.
