And actually, I feel very grateful because this is how, you know, so I would show them you can be, you know, in that place with me.

We don't need to be in this scary, dark place.

So I'm really big on, and I know we're going to finish now, but I'm really big on letting people know where you're at.

so that they can be there with you.

Because people are only trying to, they're only imagining what it would be like if they had that experience.

They're feeling like I'd be scared, I'd be terrified, I'd be in a dark place.

But then if someone says, well, actually, do you know what?

I understand that, but I'm not there.

I'm somewhere else and I'm really having a lovely life, thanks.

Then they can be there with you.

But if you don't tell them, then they can't.

So I think it's a two-way communication that's really important.

Whatever your coping strategy is, let people know so that they can mirror it as well.

And then they will if they can, you know.

That is back to the connection.

Yeah, but it is about communicating.

But it's also what you said earlier about us all being so different and having different perspectives.

Like, it's okay.

You know, it's okay if somebody would deal with it in a different way to me.

If someone did want to drink and if someone wanted to be in a dark room.
