Because your brain typically perceives is current state as normal.

Is a lot easier to process external sources and rationalize those. See tentacles coming out of the ceiling? That is Satan wanting your soul so start praying for God’s intervention to stop it because “that can’t be real” isn’t making it go away. Been staring at your monitor all day and are seeing random colors all day but you don’t notice them until it dark? Well the red dots are probably someone shining lasers into your room. Death writes on your wall you will die when you turn the lights off? Well that’s weird, probably isn’t real…. Sleep with the lights on for months because you don’t want to die.

You can’t think your way out of it and you don’t realize how flimsy your perception of reality is until you start perceiving it in other ways. And perception really is reality. You experience it.

Mania to the extent you will drive to a 5 star hotel and explain you’re a movie star and want the penthouse? Seems pretty normal at the time
