But seeing the madness it has caused to me I have no option but to abandon the delusions with immediate effect! Though it leaves me on most curious grounds...

I think he means he has quit madness but i am afraid to ask how. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

I think he means he has quit madness but i am afraid to ask how. I think it's a tycho way of saying he has lost God and he is not sure of what's next! He finds himself in rather unfamiliar territory. I myself have been 'counting the cost' and it looks like the cost is too great! All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

There's this quote I heard when watching one criminal minds episode; it went like, 'the good of losing a delusion is greater than that of grasping a truth'. @Njung'e: To understand how one can quit madness one needs to understand how one gets into it in the first place. In my case I entered via what I may call a cognitive trap. By changing my cognitive configuration I reverse my madness.

Losing a delusion is just that losing and it is gone. whether you like it or not... it's gone. The conundrum is what happens next! it's like a restart or a 180 degree turn...
