Remember when you used to think?

Remember when you used to think? When you had thoughts racing through your head all the time? When you were always thinking about things: problems, solutions, scenarios, actions, memories, predictions, places, colors, smells, tastes, people, friends, yourself?

Remember when you had fun with the various gadgets and toys you owned? When your PlayStations, PCs, Nintendo consoles, toy guns, and TV shows brought you entertainment?

Remember when you had no idea what dissociation was?

You used to live in the moment. You used to be present. You used to find joy in the things you could do and think of. You used to experience emotions in full.

Now? You numb yourself to everything. You do everything in your power to make the days go by as fast as possible, glued to a screen force-feeding you nonsense and slop to forget about everything.

Don't get me wrong, it's not entirely your fault, I mean look at all the shit you've gone through. That doesn't mean it's helping you though.

You have to wake up. You have to listen to me. The longer you do this, the more you will lose yourself in this cycle of waking up, then dissociating the whole day away, then falling asleep, only to repeat it all the next day.

There is a whole planet out there full of unique experiences just waiting for you to find them. Is this what you want to spend your finite time on this planet doing?

Please don't let me down.
