If you still aren’t sure, here’s one last idea: Write a letter to me (Sam) about how you think. Ethics and morals and all that, sure, but also tell me things like if you hear a voice in your head or not, is it yours or someone else’s, do you see the words you’re speaking, can you visualize something being described to you, things like that! I’m genuinely so curious about this, so please write to me :D
