It has been reported that some victims of torture, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not wake up

In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren’t being tortured. 

The only way that they realized they needed to 

wake up 

was a note found in their fantasy world which would tell them about their condition. 

Even then, it would often take months before they were ready to discard their fantasy world and \

please wake up.

Your exclamation seems certain, but you should be more open to using question marks. I would quote you, but I don't want to provoke any backslash.
