I also had thoughts like "I love that this is not A Mental Health Book", which got dampened a bit, but yeah I still think this is mostly not A Mental Health Book, as the very ending reaffirms, and I'm happy …

While different from my own stuff, the descriptions of not quite knowing what is real were something I related to a lot. Especially in those situations where it doesn't even matter much, because either way stuff has to be done.
