But like what I've noticed is scary.

So –

When you start saying you need particular things, this is the way for a spoiled person to get what they want.

Yes.

So I say like, I need...

This purse.

Yes.

So it's really scary.

And you're spot on that.

Like this is there's something weird happening where we're starting to use a lot of mental health language very colloquially.

And I think what's really scary is that, you know, there are people out there that and it's kind of human nature who will hijack the word need.

And really start to create.

And even when I work with these people, like it kind of makes me angry, but I sort of see where they're coming from because they many times they don't know how to manage that on their own.

So it becomes a need.

Okay, that's fair.

A great example of this is... I need my spouse to regulate me because I literally don't know how.

Absolutely, right?

So you took the example out of my mouth.

The really scary example of this is I need you to not break up with me, otherwise I'm going to kill myself.

Yep.
