It may have been undiagnosed bipolarity. One minute they are a genius and the next as crazy as crazy gets. You get pulled into their world and find there are no governs, just wild abandon. You want to help but you can't really, and then you find a way into their psyche through the higher levels of creativity. But, this requires a total submission. Not only that, it could and would bring out the best and worst in you. Still, you keep at it until you reach that place in the all encompassing universe, that zen, that nirvana...some ethereal place that is your's and your cohort's.
It is then that you realize that you are the bystander. Even the enabler. Possibly you are the muse. Used and abused. It all must come to an early end for these tortured souls. It's a wise man who keeps his distance. It's a fool who looks the other way.
