“Dear Friend, I'm sorry I haven't written to you in a couple of weeks, but I have been trying to 'participate' like Bill said.”

“Dear friend,I feel great! I really mean it. I have to remember his for the next time I'm having a terrible week. Have you wer done that? You feel really bad, and then it goes away, and you don't know why. I try to remind myself when I feel great like this that there will be another terrible week coming someday, so I should store up as many great details as I can, so during the next terrible week, I can remember those details and believe that I'll feel great again. It doesn't work a lot, but I think it's very important to try. ”

“I was in the shopping mall because that's where I go lately. For the last couple of weeks, I've been going there every day, trying to figure out why people go there. It's kind of a personal project.”

“I try to remind myself when I feel great like this that there will be another terrible week coming someday.”

“I hate you."I love you."You're a freak, you know that? Everyone says so. They always have."I'm trying not to be.”

“You're a freak, you know that? You've always been a freak. Everyone says so. They always have.""I'm trying not to be.”

“I don’t want to start thinking again. Not like I have this last week. I can’t think again. Not ever again.”
