Getting checked is the first step. I hope she gets some answers soon.

But you still got there, and we can all help each other
So many rabbit holes, so little time.
I'm waiting for an appointment with my psychiatrist to talk about what would work. Hopefully in 2 weeks I'll start and I can begin the process of dialing in a dosage.
Not being able to retain basic information for more than a few seconds.
Oh, your name is [name] and you need [item]? Too bad, I'll forget both of those things as soon as I turn around
Yes, finally, some common sense. Neelix did not consent to die for Starfleet. Tuvok did not consent to die to become Tuvix. Neither consented to staying as Tuvix, because Tuvix was his own person and could not make decisions for them.
Nobody protests Tom and William Riker staying separate despite literally being the same person. Why not extend the same logic to Tuvok and Neelix? If a clone can be it's own person, then why is the well being of two individuals cast aside?
YES!
EXACTLY!
Everyone wants to save Tuvix because they like him. But nobody wants to save Tuvok or Neelix. They didn't consent to dying so Tuvix could live. If you agree Tuvix is a person, then you cannot disregard that so were Tuvok and Neelix. Where was their funeral? Does Tuvok's family not get it's husband and father back because the crew liked Tuvix better? The two people who's opinion mattered the most couldn't be consulted. If Tuvix is a person, his judgement on the matter is simply too biased as his sense of self preservation would interfere with objective decision-making.
To save Tuvix was to murder Tuvok and Neelix.
This reminds me of a line in Forrest Gump.
"And then in the desert, when the sun comes up, I couldn't tell where heaven stopped and the earth began."
It's beautiful
This looks dope. It reminds me of Sync. Can't wait to try it out.
Your comment made me giggle more than it should have. Good work.
I'm running a game for a discord server and by its nature people will drop in and out. So I wrote it into the overarching plot. Reality is literally coming apart at the seams. Objects and creatures from other worlds have been leaking in. At the same time things have been dissappearing without a trace. Not just stuff either, an entire city just vanished in a flash of green light. A powerful wizard is investigating and needs adventurers to go out and do the grunt work. They've been traipsing about the planes trying to find the missing city and some clue as to what is happening.
There's also a monk who's working for the wizard. His job is to escort adventurers where they are needed via portals, meaning people will occasionally appear mid-adventure. Sometimes people slip out of reality. They experience it as a few seconds but the real time elapsed varies.
When I first realized that ADHD was a potential cause, it was like a light turned on. I watched some videos on symptoms to see if it lined up. Let me tell you, it is surreal hearing strangers describe your life to you. Glad he could get it addressed.
