The previous manic episode was 2022, I had just had a traumatic brain injury, I stole my mom's car and drove north because a speedrunner named Chronos got to know me on Discord and basically gaslit me into stealing my mom's car and driving north to avoid a nuclear explosion in Washington D.C. Chronos knew I had just had a TBI and he knew how easy I was to manipulate. When I was manic this year, I made a few posts about Chronos on reddit and I talked about how I believe he is secretly a high functioning psychopath and he just hides it very well.

I want to be clear, however, that I can't be 100% sure Chronos is the guy. But I spoke to him on the phone multiple times in 2022 (Disord voice chat) and his voice sounds 100% like Chronos, and the guy has a VERY distinctive voice.

I also wrote emails to Jonathan Swan of The New York Times and confessed to being the founder of the Qanon movement. I'm not, but at the time, I thought I was, and I gotta admit, my reason for believing I was the Qanon guy was not that delusional.

But that was then, here is what the most recent episode was like.

I immediately got better once I realized that my definition of mania was different from my family's definition of mania. So I basically stopped acting manic. That's it. Also I can't talk about the real reason why I went manic because no one has ever believed me. So I went manic for one and only one reason. I got a new computer, which triggered my mania, which made me want to get high, which is why I relapsed. The truth is that my drug use did not increase at all during that time.

So yeah.......that's why I went manic this time.
