Got around to refining that old post into a proper essay. Mind the content warnings on this one.

A Post-Unmortem of Acute Madness: On surviving an episode of acute psychosis as a group.

This reminds us a lot about a time when we were in college and really stressed--we were failing the semester and for various reasons that felt like a death sentence--but when Artemis was at their lowest and a danger to themselves Minato stepped in and made sure everything was safe and we were accountable and had a plan.

While we all still struggle with our mental health stuff to a degree, I think our plurality has been an anchor for us to lean on when things get scary. We know that we can trust each other to keep us safe and get us help if we need to. I don't think Artemis could have gone it alone this whole time. -Saran/Feixiao

I'm so glad you all have each other.

Thank you for the essay, and I'm so sorry you all had to go through that. But the main thing I thought while reading it was I'm so glad you all have each other.

Words not wordsing right now so I can't sculpt this comment as pretty as I want. But that one thought leapt out through my fingers fully-formed. Too hard not to share it.

Rogan: We’re glad you made this essay. We (and I) have grappled off and on with psychosis, though it’s at times harder to encapsulate since it tends to mix with head injuries and stuff, but that “oh the screaming “ brought tears to my eyes because of the familiarity.

We are so glad you’re out of that job and so grateful we found that Williams book in a free box.
