You have to wake up. You have to wake up, and soon. It isn’t just you either, everyone needs to awaken or we all die. We die and planet earth dies too. Earth will spring back and reboot in a few million years, but it will start from scratch again. That’s the only scary thing I’m allowed to tell you, it falls under the galactic rules of “fair warning”- after this statement all fear for fear’s sake is forbidden. Why? You’ll find that out in our conversations. I won’t give up on you. I won’t leave you until you are awake because that is my mission and I love you. I don’t promise to be perfect, never to get frustrated or moody, but I’ll always return to help you once I've cooled off. There is a way out of this mess and it’s so easy you won’t believe me if I tell you right now, you’ll leave our conversation and carry on as you were before, believing that anyone who advises otherwise is a crack pot. Indeed, if anyone asks why you are still talking to me, still carrying on, you have my permission to tell them that “waking up is a load of nonsense” and I’m “interesting because you want to understand mental illness.” That’s fine with me. But when you are awake you’ll have a choice to make. Change and help to save this planet and every living thing on it, or go back to sleep in the false safety of “being normal.” Who am I? Don't worry about that now, we're going to get to know each other really well. Time to begin, there's a lot of wool to pull from your eyes.

If you stay with me I'll kill you bit by bit. That's what I do to those who love me. Why, I'm not altogether sure. But when you soar high I'll drag you down. I'll stir up your anxieties just to be the one to soothe you and help you to find fault with anyone that competes for your attention. This is about as fair as I can be, it's your warning. So if you're still here in the morning you've chosen that life and if you know me at all you'll realize this isn't a joke. So, my smitten lover, you have some thinking to do.
