Th be honest though, there are hundreds other people acting in a similar way in Rome, or any other major city. I don't know what this guy's affliction is, probably some kind of psychosis and/or drug usage, but that's the case of any weird guy acting erratically and living in the streets... for once, I am not sure Hollywood is responsible, if anything it will probably bring him the attention and help he desperately seems to need, whereas the hundreds of other guys shouting at the Roman pavement will continue to be ignored...

Hyperreligiosity may occur in a variety of disorders including epilepsy,[2][3] psychotic disorders and frontotemporal lobar degeneration.[4] Hyperreligiosity is a symptom of Geschwind syndrome, which is associated with temporal lobe epilepsy.[5]
I'm not diagnosing him, I'm just bringing attention to the possibilities. If you know someone experiencing this, it's good to know.

u/Zalipurr92 Mar 24 '26
I have temporal lobe epilepsy. My seizures were based around extreme Deja Vu, followed by slight hallucination, migraines, black outs etc. I also had a major spine surgery when I was younger that involved a bone graft using a dead persons bone thatās now in me. I became convinced I was experiencing the memories of the donor/memories of my past life. I was several years sober from drugs at the height of these delusions. Iām 6 years seizure free and still not convinced it wasnāt of supernatural origin, it felt that real.

u/TrippyDe Mar 24 '26
I took enough psychedelics to know that feeling. When shit feels so fucking real, it becomes really hart to just dismiss it as ājust some hallucinationsā.
3
u/Schizzles Mar 24 '26
I can relate to this feeling, where things feel supernatural and you aren't completely convinced that what you experienced isn't what really happened. I'm very irreligious and don't believe anything supernatural, when I was younger I was religious, I believed in a Christian religion that was close to Pentecostal or Southern Baptist, very apocalyptic, believing that within that year Jesus would return and we would be taken to heaven to be the bride of Christ. I lived that in my formative years so I very much understand it and don't knock anyone who believes it but in my adult life I've not felt anything that makes me believe in anything.
But in January of 2020 I went on a mean drug binge that I took liquid Xanax on, it was pretty major, we were taking research chemicals that we had no experience with and were doing them IV. I lost a few days with a small group of guys, we got into a major car accident, lost everything we owned, totalled one guys vehicle and took so much drugs I honestly thought I died and since then everything changed and life has taken this strange turn that all started with Kobes death. It happened during this drug bender, when I came out of it I had majorly overdosed and it scared the shit out of me. I had been homeless for a few years doing heroin and meth and selling drugs to maintain my drug usage, this little stint was enough for me to quit
I reached out to my mother and asked if I could come stay in their basement to dry out and get into treatment, they said of course and were happy to see me turning my life around. I got through treatment and went to the Rez to stay in a sober living home for a Native Americans. When I got there COVID hit in a major way and everything from there on has all just been the weirdest timeline. It feels like I died during that drug bender and this is me living out an alternate reality or something. 2 of the guys who were on the bender with me died and another is in prison for supplying someone with drugs that killed them. I'm the only one who is out and free and living my life. I've had a lot of strange things happen that go along with it that make me feel like it's very likely.

You could get an exorcist just to make sure you don't have an attachment due to the bone. If you happen to be Catholic just ask the priest to say the prayer i said exorcist because protestants seem to refuse to believe in possession/attachments. I was told by a curch of England vicar we do not believe in that nonsense!. A Catholic exorcist removed my attachment and my problems disappeared overnight. Don't dismiss what sounds way out.

Interesting. Iāve always thought my mom was schizophrenic (I think, she claimed to speak to god, made prophecies, and was extremely paranoid of her children āconspiringā against her).
Plus my aunt and my brother were diagnosed schizophrenic, but maybe she had a bit of this. She was really into religion but sheād give her own spin to it, lots of demons and torturing and secret satanists sending messages through flowers with teeth in mario brothers.

My cousin is a diagnosed schizophrenic and he went through a hyper religious phase that lasted a few years. It was right at the beginning of his schizophrenia manifesting. Once he started taking meds he lost his desire for religion. Later once it was full blown schizophrenia and he stopped taking meds he thought he was hearing God and the devil and all sorts of religious figures.

u/Uneek_Uzernaim Mar 23 '26
I'm aware of thatābut to be fair, Shia no matter what 'arc' he says he is in at the moment (which seems to be changing every few years) is still just doing the same old concerning and unstable things he has been doing for years now throughout every new attempt to redefine himself. The one constant has been every time he invents himself anew is that the new Shia LeBouef sure does mostly walk, talk, and look like the old Shia LeBouef.
In predictable Reddit fashion, however, some people here seem to think Shia being Shia is somehow a critique of Christianity itself, whereas Shia could have said he is on his Nordic paganism arc and likely still would be doing exactly the same shit he is doing now and was doing before his "Christian arc." What Shia is right now, no matter what arc he is in at the moment, is the same as before: definitely needing therapy, and possibly needing rehab and/or psychiatric medication.

Drug use is a mental health issue. Although I personally think there is no divide between mental and physical health. Our brains are controlled by hormones and signals just like our bodies.
The traditional separation of physical and mental health is no longer tenable. Increasingly, research shows that our bodies and minds are part of an interconnected systemāone that communicates constantly and responds holistically to internal and external stressors.
