Meditation and possible some states of enlightenment(fully quiet mind), are about reducing activity in the default-mode-network(DMN). Psychologically this is seen as a reduction/loss of the sense of self(or more exactly stopping self-referential thoughts)
On the other hand, a common association[1] with several mental illnesses, is rumination("repetitive, self-directed thought") - which actually fits the current study. One wonders if specific mental illness cause rumination and why ? or is it backwards ?
