This is a work of artistic fiction. A condensed form was considered, but for sake of expressing the emotive evoked by the originally inspired manuscripts, one of a jeweled fever dream, the original form has been kept. It represents an abstract letter of apology sent to an old friend due to a mistake in behavior that was made during a manic psychotic episode during November in the 2020’s. It is designed to be reminiscent of classics such as The Bell Jar, Nova Express, and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.
It may help raise awareness of mental health to consider that mental illness effects nearly 6% of adults in the United States, and touches all our lives in one way or another, either directly or indirectly.
The form of the original document has been kept, but has been separated into several more readable parts.
