What brings you here today?
|
Question |
|
Those idiot cops brought me here. I don’t need to be here but the front desk guy said that they have to check me out. Like I’m some sort of book in the history of atlases.
|
|
|
Why did the cops bring you here?
|
Question |
|
So, I was running around trying to find out what car they — so these government agents, I get this feeling they’re after me sometimes, and when I feel really good, especially, I’m more in touch with when they’re after me — so I was checking out some cars, like, I just KNEW they were hiding in one of them — I mean, it was a grocery store parking lot, I’m sure I looked crazy running around and stuff.
|
|
|
What did the government agents want? (Clarified to Why do government agents want to contain you?.)
|
Question |
|
I am in possession of certain secrets that certain people would die to protect. I can’t go into detail. They could be listening, but agents were coming for me. All the fruit and hot dogs were sleeping in the grocery store. But outside the grocery store, there they were. Agents. They imprison, it’s what they do. They wanted to “contain” me, but I cannot be contained. (Clarified to why the agents wanted to contain me.)
|
|
|
Are you anxious or paranoid?
|
Question |
|
Listen, I’m not paranoid or anything. I’m telling you facts. Cold, hard facts. Put ’em in your pocket and feel that weight. That’s right. Government agents were chasing me and it’s a good thing that they never got me.
|
|
|
Am sorry about that
|
Empathize |
|
Thanks a million, but I’m all good, I promise!
|
|
|
Are you anxious?
|
Question |
|
I’m not anxious or paranoid or whatever. I mean, I just have a really really fine-tuned sense of, like, OK, now they’re coming for me, the government agents, and I have to be on the look out, ’cause no way am I being snatched up, not a chance.
|
|
|
Any hallucinations?
|
Question |
|
No way. I don’t see junk that’s not there or anything.
|
|
|
Any recent substance use?
|
Question |
|
I haven’t been anything but sober for like, four days. I know I seem like I’m on something, but I’m just this way naturally.
|
|
|
Which substance did you last use? (Clarified to What was the last substance you used?.)
|
Question |
|
I haven’t been anything but sober for like, four days. I know I seem like I’m on something, but I’m just this way naturally. (Clarified to what the substance I used most recently is.)
|
|
|
Do you get enough sleep?
|
Question |
|
Well, there’s not much of it, but I get a couple hours in usually, and I never feel, like, unrested or anything. Recently, I haven’t had to sleep for like, four days. It’s sick, completely bangin’.
|
|
|
Am sorry about that
|
Empathize |
|
That’s super cool of you, thanks!
|
|
|
What is your energy level?
|
Question |
|
Awesome! I mean, I’m just a high energy kind of guy, a lot of the time. But this week especially I’ve felt, like, crazy up and up, and I love it. I just love it. I feel like I could lift a horse.
|
|
|
What is your current mood?
|
Question |
|
I am 100% letting the good times roll. Couldn’t be better.
|
|
|
When did your high energy begin?
|
Question |
|
I didn’t mark it on a calendar or anything, but a week ago sounds right. It’s the greatest thing ever. You wouldn’t believe all the stuff you can get done with a ton of energy. It’s like: yes! yes! yes! I should be the mascot for a battery company or something. It doesn’t hurt that I’m good-looking.
|
|
|
Have you had euphoria? (No matching questions found.)
|
Question |
|
How long have you had a good mood? (Clarified to How long has your mood been this good?.)
|
Question |
|
I’ve had the jazz in my blood for a week, I’d say. It’s been all trumpets and horn ever since. Gosh, I always knew it could be this way. Me, being the best version of myself. The world, parting its lip like a dang oyster for my consumption. What a life! Ain’t it a song? (Clarified to how long my mood has been this good.)
|
|
|
Any current health problems?
|
Question |
|
Not really. They diagnosed me with depression, but I’m really not worried about that anymore. I’m just really not in that headspace right now.
|
|
|
What are your typical moods?
|
Question |
|
You’ve got Option A and Option B. With A, we’re talking about a bottomless rat hole. With B, we’re talking good vibes that don’t disappoint. I’ll stick with B, thanks.
|
|
|
What are your typical energy levels?
|
Question |
|
Arg! Picture this: a ship on the sea. The waves go up and down. The ship bobs. What’s normal if the ship’s a’bob? You tell me. I’ve been high and I’ve been low.
|
|
Have you experienced depression or suicide attempts in the past?
|
Question |
|
|
Well, yes, I have felt that way before, but that was, what, a couple months ago? I really feel fine and dandy these days. Dandy and dandy, even.
