People who are severely mentally ill are far more likely to form negative conspiracy theories that they would have never believed when medicated.
I mean, do you think that all schizophrenics who think the government is tracking them through their teeth fillings actually belive that?
If you've ever known someone with a severe mental disorder like bipolar or schizophrenia, then you'd know that they're not themselves during an episode.
Hell, even neuro-typical people experience this to a degree. Ever been at a railing with a huge drop and suddenly get an urge to step off? That's called the Call of the Void, and it's a pretty common phenomenon.
The way a person acts during a mental health crisis is not indicative of the kind of person they actually are.
