‘So, you ever went on a really bad date and you feel the need to escape your reality so you, like, go to a happy place in your brain? For survival? This experience was the opposite of that. I felt so present, and it opened me up. I wasn’t escaping inside my body I was like . . . discovering and rediscovering things that I knew and didn’t know at the same time. Memories. Questions I have. Emotions.
