What Would You Do?

What would you do if someone you knew was delusional?  I am a believer that there are forces in this Universe that we still don't understand or that we have not yet been able to fully harness.  However, if there is someone you knew whom was also a believer but deep down inside you knew that this person went a little too far in the belief, what would you do?

Basically what I am getting at here is that I knew a person who believed pretty much what I believed.  However, fast forward a few years, and things started to change.  I can't say for sure, but I'm almost certain that drugs were involved, and the only reason I say this is because this person's behaviour really became erratic and temper-mental.  He also claimed to start seeing things like dark enteties, which, in and of itself I wouldn't question if that were the only thing.  I know full well that everyone develops at different paces, so it wasn't jealousy that prompted my questioning.  Aside from him seeing his ghastly visitors, he started also blaming everything and everyone else for all that went wrong in his past as well as all that was currently going wrong. This, I'm afraid has more to do with drugs, rather than anything to do with the pursuit of enlightenment.

So I ask the question again, what would you do?  What I did was I distanced myself from this individual, not just because of what I stated above, but also for other personal reasons which I will not get into.  None the less, what I did state above would've been enough for me to distance myself anyway because the last thing I want is to be corrupted by an individual who I deemed to be unstable.

Have any of you experienced something like this?  I would love to hear from you either via a comment, or email me at dorrian.knight@gmail.com
