We need to get these people airlifted out of there and into a psychiatric facility as soon as possible. But it wasn't possible. Sorry, go ahead. It's good that it wasn't possible because that would have aborted what was happening. And that would have –

I have no doubt that if that had happened, that would have left me at least insane, probably for the rest of my life, lost in this delusional place. I don't know what it would have done to Terrence, but the fact that we could not end it. Gave it all a possibility – the opportunity to play out. And what played out over about the next 10 days or so was that Terrence, I became adrift in the cosmos.

I was basically – And my mind felt that I felt – well, there wasn't really an I anymore. But this entity that I transformed myself into felt like I was – my circumference was identical with the circumference of the universe. I was – you've heard about being one with the cosmos. Well, man, I was one with the cosmos. I was the cosmos. But over the next 10 days or so, I began to condense.

Each 24 hours, I started falling back together. And each 24 hours, I was a little more relaxed. condensed, like it started with the circumference of the cosmos, the next it was the galactic cluster, the next it was the galaxy, the next the solar system, the next earth, and each one I was sort of coming back into my body and into my mind.

It was about 10 to 14 days.

Well, people had to look after me, you know. And because I was joined to everybody, like my companion, for example, if I wanted to smoke a cigarette, I would ask Sarah to smoke a cigarette. And I could enjoy the cigarette that she was smoking. Or if I want, you know, because I was connected to everybody, you know. Or if I needed to take a shit, I could ask somebody else to do it.

And they would do it. in my mind, of course, not in reality, but in my mind. And so I was really divorced from what we would call reality. My brother simultaneously was hypervigilant. He did not sleep for 14 days. And he was constantly keeping an eye on me. He was looking after me, you know. That's probably why I wasn't sleeping.
