Doctor? I have spent twenty odd years in constant mental contact with two blokes who are even more cynical than you. I never much minded. They have their reasons. So do you.
But the truth is that you're so isolated that you're not getting enough feedback from the world. You end up stuck in your own head too much and you know just as well as I that oftentimes one's own head isn't a pleasant or even logical place. And when it gets too bad, people look for a way to not think for a while. I know that first hand. It's how I ended up overdosing.
That's right. I'm not exactly naive about chemical life-enhancement, and what happens if you don't have a proper handle on it. I'm going to make certain you have meds to treat your pain, and I'm not taking your pub privileges. But I have to make sure you don't hurt yourself. That is where things start. Just a bit of harm reduction.
