A's life took a drastic turn when he began exhibiting signs of psychosis in summer 2023. He experienced severe insomnia and developed delusions, believing he was a government sleeper agent destined for a moon base. This led him to quit his job, causing confusion for his boss who had to navigate his startling declarations. His condition worsened, culminating in a DUI arrest due to a psychotic episode. These events underline the profound impact mental health challenges can have on an individual's perception of reality and their interactions with others.
"I thought that the government had a base on the far side of the moon, and I was destined to be picked up by a helicopter, taken to a spaceship and flown to that base."
"My boss took it in stride as best she could. She sat down in her chair and slumped back, clearly hit by the weight of what I had said."
"I was so delusional at that point that I thought that the Band-Aids would somehow be tickets that she could give to the government agents when they finally came."
