That gap between being sane and insane is actually quite smaller than we think. How can an oxymoron have two opposites sit so close to one another yet to be defined as something so distant? Is the word oxymoron an oxymoron itself? Are they really oxymorons? Love and Hate are complete opposites, yet how many of us feel we constantly live in love/hate relationships. Without hate there is no love, and without love there is no hate. Life is an oxymoron....there is no perfection, opposites attract and as they attract, they learn to coexist...sitting one beside the other as they do in an oxymoron. If you are not currently going through an oxymoron in your life, you are not living.
Think of life as a puzzle...you start off as one piece and as you start meeting other pieces, you realize that only those that carry the exact opposite borders to yours are the ones that fit (try to visualize it). We seek all the wrong things, we live in search of all the exact same pieces, not realizing that it's the different pieces and the oxymorons in our life that have the most perfectly imperfect fit.
Are you happily happy? happily unhappy? or unhappily happy? Which one sounds like everyone's reality? (at least everyone who is a human being). Yes, we live happily unhappy and unhappily happy, there is NO such thing as happily happy unless you live in a perfect world- which if so please pass along the recipe for it. Oxymorons can coexist in most circumstances- as they say opposites do attract. Well it's all about Chemistry! aaaand if you were paying attention to your Chemistry class you will remember that "it is the study of the compositions, structures, properties and changes of matter which is produced by the transformations and interactions between atoms and molecules"...if all atoms and molecules were the same there wouldn't be any chemistry to study. The atoms don't have to be oxymorons...but they sometimes are: like H2O which is the compound of hydrogen in its liquid state (H2) and oxygen which is a gas (two opposites chemically create water a liquid which in certain stages could be gas/liquid or solid.... AH Chemistry!
Oxymorons are a part of our life and here to stay. So, if you feel you are not sane, then my friend you are insanely sane or sanely insane. Society has some rigid standards of how we should measure our state of being, but I think we need to start being realistic because there is no one in this world who is completely SANE (and if you think you are...please do share your recipe). We need to start embracing our oxymorons and we need to start embracing the imperfections of life. There is no medication that is going to cure insanity or depression, the only one who is capable of doing that is one self and the first step to achieving that is to accept your oxymorons and embrace life's imperfections.

Time's mindtricks
What happens when time is not your light of hope
but the burden of your sorrow?
How do you look forward to time
when all you want is for it to stop?
How do you manage to fight the clock
if the ticks makes you feel helpless?
How is it normal to just forget
those memories that time has nourished?
What happens when that day comes?
Is time giving up on us? cause I will never give up on you.
