If I do not receive it... I will die. Whatever happens after is on the rest of you. Because I will be dead. Even if I were to reverse every position I have ever had, that will not change what other people are going to do in response to the things that happen to me. There is no undoing things for me. Either my brain hurts or it doesn't. I am either in a cage or not in a cage. You are either actively using the symptoms of an illness people to not have against people or you are not doing that. This is not supposed to be visible to the public. Who's bright idea was it to make this visible to the public?

WHY WOULD SUGGEST SUCH A THING!? I was GOING to suggest 'a dry tugger from Jenna Ortega!' You freak! Child Murder? Really?"
