[faucet running]

2
00:01:31,216 --> 00:01:34,177
[bag crinkling]

3
00:01:43,102 --> 00:01:46,064
[faucet turns on and off]

4
00:01:48,524 --> 00:01:51,486
[faucet continues running]

5
00:02:00,954 --> 00:02:03,373
So, that is how I woke up this morning.

6
00:02:03,373 --> 00:02:04,999
In my sleep-addled brain,

7
00:02:04,999 --> 00:02:07,418
I thought I was hearing like a white noise
machine or something.

8
00:02:07,418 --> 00:02:07,877
But no,

9
00:02:07,877 --> 00:02:11,297
in fact, it was the fucking sink running
all night long.

10
00:02:11,673 --> 00:02:14,550
So that was awesome.

11
00:02:14,550 --> 00:02:16,970
Especially
because I just moved into a place

12
00:02:16,970 --> 00:02:20,890
that has been a vacation home
up until a few days ago when I moved in.

13
00:02:21,766 --> 00:02:24,269
Uh, weirdly, it's still kind of
feels like a vacation home.

14
00:02:24,269 --> 00:02:24,978
In fact,

15
00:02:24,978 --> 00:02:28,481
there's very carefully manicured towels
folded on the counters

16
00:02:28,481 --> 00:02:30,608
of all of the bathrooms
that I can't bring myself to unfold

17
00:02:30,608 --> 00:02:31,818
because they look so nice.

18
00:02:31,818 --> 00:02:32,485
So it's weird.

19
00:02:32,485 --> 00:02:36,281
It is like I was living in a hotel,
and then one morning I walked out

20
00:02:36,572 --> 00:02:37,991
and the water was running.

21
00:02:37,991 --> 00:02:41,828
So my brain immediately goes to, ‘Holy
shit, there's somebody in here,’ right?

22
00:02:42,161 --> 00:02:43,371
Somebody’s cleaning the place.

23
00:02:43,371 --> 00:02:45,873
I don't know, guy fixing the pipes.
I have no idea.

24
00:02:45,873 --> 00:02:48,876
But then I remembered, okay, well,
I can find out

25
00:02:48,918 --> 00:02:53,297
because the owner told me
there is a single security camera in here.

26
00:02:53,548 --> 00:02:54,465
That's great news for me.

27
00:02:54,465 --> 00:02:58,261
So I climbed up there and I found
the information, accessed the footage.

28
00:02:58,428 --> 00:03:01,389
And that is how I found out
for the very first time

29
00:03:01,431 --> 00:03:05,018
in 48 years of living,
that I am now sleepwalking.

30
00:03:05,018 --> 00:03:08,354
And I know that because
I lived with my parents until I was 19.

31
00:03:08,688 --> 00:03:10,064
They never said anything.

32
00:03:10,064 --> 00:03:13,067
I had a roommate for a couple of years
before I got married, and then obviously

33
00:03:13,067 --> 00:03:17,280
I was living with my wife and no one has
ever told me anything about sleepwalking.

34
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,157
So one of two things is true.

35
00:03:19,157 --> 00:03:22,160
Either
I've been sleeping, walking my whole life,

36
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,163
and there's a conspiracy for everyone
to keep it a secret from me.

37
00:03:25,329 --> 00:03:28,332
Or I literally just started
at 48 years old.

38
00:03:28,666 --> 00:03:32,170
Neither of them is super plausible, but
the second one seems to be more likely.

39
00:03:33,045 --> 00:03:36,591
That is why I am
posting here in this forum.

40
00:03:37,884 --> 00:03:39,010
I did a bunch of research.

41
00:03:39,010 --> 00:03:42,972
I looked around to try and, um, find places
that might be able

42
00:03:42,972 --> 00:03:46,851
to help other forums and, you know, places
that people post about sleep disorders.

43
00:03:47,185 --> 00:03:48,603
And this is the only one I found

44
00:03:48,603 --> 00:03:51,439
where it seems like
there's about an equal number of people

45
00:03:51,439 --> 00:03:54,400
who have suffered from sleep disorders,
and also people who study them.

46
00:03:54,484 --> 00:03:57,028
So it seemed like
this was a really good place to look.

47
00:03:57,028 --> 00:04:01,991
So my hope is that I can maybe share
some information with you

48
00:04:01,991 --> 00:04:05,661
and then the experience that you have
on one side or the other of this

49
00:04:05,828 --> 00:04:07,455
can help me figure out what's going on.

50
00:04:07,455 --> 00:04:09,791
Like, I don't think it's dangerous
or an emergency or anything,

51
00:04:09,791 --> 00:04:12,043
but it's pretty weird.
So maybe you guys can help me.

52
00:04:12,043 --> 00:04:12,794
First things first.

53
00:04:12,794 --> 00:04:15,046
I don't- I don't want to use my real name.

54
00:04:15,046 --> 00:04:15,755
I'm just going to-

55
00:04:15,755 --> 00:04:18,007
You can call me Sam.
That's what I'm going to go by.

56
00:04:18,007 --> 00:04:21,469
I would like to figure out what's going
on, but I really don't want to expose

57
00:04:21,469 --> 00:04:23,638
a ton of stuff about my life
in order to do it.

58
00:04:23,638 --> 00:04:25,431
First of all, I am living in a new place.

59
00:04:25,431 --> 00:04:27,767
I mentioned that, I've only been here 3
or 4 days.

60
00:04:27,767 --> 00:04:30,728
The, uh- the thing about it is,
it is a temporary place.

61
00:04:30,770 --> 00:04:33,773
The last place I lived,
I lived for a long time with my wife.

62
00:04:34,023 --> 00:04:36,609
And then before that, it's always long
periods of time.

63
00:04:36,609 --> 00:04:41,489
This is a temporary rental until
I can find, a more permanent residence.

64
00:04:41,489 --> 00:04:44,283
This is the first time
that I have ever lived by myself.

65
00:04:44,283 --> 00:04:47,245
I mentioned my parents,
my roommate, my wife.

66
00:04:47,245 --> 00:04:49,747
So living by myself is not by choice.

67
00:04:50,957 --> 00:04:53,334
Well, it is not by my choice.

68
00:04:53,334 --> 00:04:56,837
My wife asked me to move out.

69
00:04:57,338 --> 00:04:59,966
We are getting separated.

70
00:04:59,966 --> 00:05:01,926
It's not, so--

71
00:05:01,926 --> 00:05:04,095
we're not fighting. It's not violent.

72
00:05:04,095 --> 00:05:04,637
You know what I mean?

73
00:05:04,637 --> 00:05:05,888
It's not heated or anything like that.

74
00:05:05,888 --> 00:05:08,599
There's no cheating. It's-

75
00:05:08,599 --> 00:05:10,142
we have...

76
00:05:10,142 --> 00:05:11,769
I don't know how to--

77
00:05:11,769 --> 00:05:15,189
she was not happy in general, I think, but

78
00:05:15,731 --> 00:05:18,734
also with me. She's just-

79
00:05:19,277 --> 00:05:20,695
I, well, so first things first,

80
00:05:20,695 --> 00:05:24,198
She does not love the amount of time
I spend devoted to,

81
00:05:24,573 --> 00:05:27,535
I guess my,
you know, my business, my career.

82
00:05:27,535 --> 00:05:30,079
I create chat AI agents to help people.

83
00:05:30,079 --> 00:05:33,708
I help them structure them and then it,
they utilize it in their lives, right?

84
00:05:33,708 --> 00:05:35,084
It basically just makes things easier.

85
00:05:35,084 --> 00:05:38,838
They, I mean- anything
organizing tax documents,

86
00:05:38,838 --> 00:05:42,008
handling your emails or paperwork
and things like that.

87
00:05:42,008 --> 00:05:42,216
Right?

88
00:05:42,216 --> 00:05:45,886
So basically just being the part of you
that handles the shit

89
00:05:45,886 --> 00:05:48,222
you don't want to handle, right?
And that's what they do.

90
00:05:48,222 --> 00:05:51,684
My wife's problem with it is that she says
that I don't treat it like a business.

91
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:53,519
I treat it like a calling.

92
00:05:53,519 --> 00:05:56,856
And while I do not love the vibe of that,
it sounds,

93
00:05:57,315 --> 00:06:00,151
I don't know, culty
or religious or whatever.

94
00:06:00,151 --> 00:06:04,155
I don't think she's wrong in the sense
that I do think what I do is important

95
00:06:04,155 --> 00:06:05,072
and helpful.

96
00:06:05,072 --> 00:06:08,701
Things that they run into that slow
them down or make life more inconvenient.

97
00:06:09,285 --> 00:06:10,119
I'm helping with that.

98
00:06:10,119 --> 00:06:13,039
So that feels good. And I like doing it.
The way that she worded it,

99
00:06:13,039 --> 00:06:15,166
I don't know if this is
exact, but she basically said

100
00:06:16,459 --> 00:06:19,420
I- I think
that is more important than her.

101
00:06:20,421 --> 00:06:23,549
So if that's the way she feels,
then I understand how we got where we are.

102
00:06:24,300 --> 00:06:27,553
So, other stuff. It's
not really any financial issues.

103
00:06:27,553 --> 00:06:29,722
Like I said, we're doing
pretty well there.

104
00:06:29,722 --> 00:06:33,392
We don't have any children,
so I don't know that it would be like

105
00:06:33,392 --> 00:06:35,019
an immediate family issue.

106
00:06:35,019 --> 00:06:38,064
So none of none of those
are the causes of the problem.

107
00:06:38,773 --> 00:06:41,150
This,
I mean, the causes of the sleepwalking,

108
00:06:41,150 --> 00:06:44,737
not the situation
with my wife. By the way,

109
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:46,947
I'm just going to call her Mary Alice.

110
00:06:46,947 --> 00:06:47,740
That's not her real name.

111
00:06:47,740 --> 00:06:48,824
Just like mine's not Sam.

112
00:06:48,824 --> 00:06:50,868
But I'm- for obvious reasons,

113
00:06:50,868 --> 00:06:53,662
I don't want to drag her
into this as well.

114
00:06:53,662 --> 00:06:56,665
I'm posting here because I'm
hoping something that I said there

115
00:06:56,832 --> 00:06:59,835
triggers a memory,
something that I have in common with you.

116
00:06:59,835 --> 00:07:00,878
And you were like, oh, you know what?

117
00:07:00,878 --> 00:07:03,881
That was part of what was causing my sleep
disorder or whatever.

118
00:07:04,006 --> 00:07:07,968
And if you think of it, please
feel free to post on here and let me know.

119
00:07:08,344 --> 00:07:10,221
Because honestly, my only goal in doing

120
00:07:10,221 --> 00:07:11,680
this is
I just want to know what's going on.

121
00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,683
I just want to have, I don't know,
some sense of control of this thing.

122
00:07:15,559 --> 00:07:18,521
So if you can help
me, I would really appreciate it.

123
00:07:20,314 --> 00:07:21,941
So I guess that's it.

124
00:07:21,941 --> 00:07:25,069
And I will- if I think of anything
else, I'll post again.

125
00:07:26,737 --> 00:07:29,740
Thanks.

126
00:07:49,718 --> 00:07:58,018
[inaudible whispering]

127
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:07,695
[static crackle]

128
00:08:20,708 --> 00:08:21,041
Right.

129
00:08:21,041 --> 00:08:25,379
So, it's great to have found a place
that had security cameras.

130
00:08:25,379 --> 00:08:27,798
That's awesome. Most of these places
are not equipped with them.

131
00:08:27,798 --> 00:08:30,884
However, as you noticed from the footage
that I just showed you,

132
00:08:32,136 --> 00:08:33,971
not everything is caught by the camera.

133
00:08:33,971 --> 00:08:36,348
When you only have one camera,
there are places that you can go

134
00:08:36,348 --> 00:08:38,309
and do all kinds of weird shit,
apparently.

135
00:08:38,309 --> 00:08:41,103
Like stand in the corner
and whisper to nothing in particular

136
00:08:41,103 --> 00:08:43,063
and it doesn't pick it up.
You can't see what's going on.

137
00:08:43,063 --> 00:08:43,897
You can barely hear.

138
00:08:43,897 --> 00:08:47,234
So I decided to add a few extra ones.

139
00:08:47,776 --> 00:08:49,903
I have this guy right here.

140
00:08:49,903 --> 00:08:53,115
This is the one that's going to basically,
it has a better view of the kitchen.

141
00:08:53,407 --> 00:08:56,618
And I can see the porch
a little bit to the bay windows.

142
00:08:56,869 --> 00:08:59,830
I've got another one pointing down
the hall towards the bedroom.

143
00:08:59,872 --> 00:09:00,956
Got one in the bedroom.

144
00:09:00,956 --> 00:09:02,708
Because I would love to solve
the mystery of

145
00:09:02,708 --> 00:09:05,127
am I setting my ass on the dresser
and breaking my glasses?

146
00:09:05,127 --> 00:09:06,420
That'd be nice to know.

147
00:09:06,420 --> 00:09:07,129
And then I have-

148
00:09:07,129 --> 00:09:10,132
the last couple are outdoor, cameras.

149
00:09:10,174 --> 00:09:11,383
These are, like, all-weather cameras,

150
00:09:11,383 --> 00:09:15,137
so I'm going to put a couple on either
end of the porch to catch, in case...

151
00:09:16,096 --> 00:09:17,097
I don't even know,

152
00:09:17,097 --> 00:09:20,100
man, if I decide to go sunbathing at midnight.

153
00:09:20,267 --> 00:09:22,061
I've already done weirder shit than that.

154
00:09:22,061 --> 00:09:25,356
So the reason I'm recording
this is because I had a question for you

155
00:09:25,356 --> 00:09:28,984
guys who have been through this before,
which is I'm curious if you have any,

156
00:09:29,193 --> 00:09:31,862
I'll call them, like sleepwalking
survival tips.

157
00:09:31,862 --> 00:09:34,865
I was living with my wife
and this was happening,

158
00:09:34,907 --> 00:09:37,868
if I was going to, I don't know,
climb over the stair banister

159
00:09:37,868 --> 00:09:39,912
and then take a dive out
onto a chandelier.

160
00:09:39,912 --> 00:09:41,830
She would see and she would stop me.

161
00:09:41,830 --> 00:09:43,499
But I do not have that here.

162
00:09:43,499 --> 00:09:47,628
So I don't know how close I am
to danger at any moment,

163
00:09:47,628 --> 00:09:51,465
so I would love to know
if you guys have any tips.

164
00:09:52,382 --> 00:09:54,510
I asked the chat AI agent

165
00:09:54,510 --> 00:09:58,097
what options like that might be
and they gave,

166
00:09:58,305 --> 00:10:01,600
so they gave me some information that
wasn't exactly what I was looking for,

167
00:10:01,975 --> 00:10:05,562
but it would make me feel better to know
that some of you who have, I don't know,

168
00:10:05,562 --> 00:10:09,733
dealt with something like this before
have some sort of plan.

169
00:10:09,733 --> 00:10:11,527
What do you do when you're home alone
or whatever?

170
00:10:11,527 --> 00:10:14,905
You know, I don't want to tie myself up,
but you know, who knows?

171
00:10:14,905 --> 00:10:17,741
You guys have tried it and it works.
Let me know.

172
00:10:17,741 --> 00:10:19,785
I also wanted to
thank everybody who posted.

173
00:10:19,785 --> 00:10:24,039
I went back and I looked at the, the,
the responses, the comments.

174
00:10:24,414 --> 00:10:27,417
I really appreciate all of the feedback.

175
00:10:27,918 --> 00:10:29,920
A couple of you had some tips,
which I think are great.

176
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:30,629
I'm going through that.

177
00:10:30,629 --> 00:10:31,880
I'm trying to like,
sort of work through it

178
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:33,715
and make sure that I understand
what you're saying.

179
00:10:33,715 --> 00:10:36,927
But a lot of it was really
just a ton of empathy from you.

180
00:10:37,010 --> 00:10:38,095
Sympathy.

181
00:10:38,095 --> 00:10:41,014
You guys,
many of you have been through it.

182
00:10:41,014 --> 00:10:43,392
A few of you were telling me,
you know what it's like to have

183
00:10:43,392 --> 00:10:46,395
a relative that's going through it or,
you know, patients in some cases.

184
00:10:46,603 --> 00:10:50,440
And I just felt an awful
lot of compassion from you.

185
00:10:50,983 --> 00:10:53,610
And that means a lot to me right now.

186
00:10:53,610 --> 00:10:56,905
It's a- it's a weird time in many ways,

187
00:10:57,155 --> 00:11:00,075
and particularly at night,
feeling so out of control.

188
00:11:00,075 --> 00:11:02,619
It's great to feel like
there are other people out here

189
00:11:02,619 --> 00:11:05,497
who understand
and feel like there's a light

190
00:11:05,497 --> 00:11:08,959
at the end of the tunnel, so
thank you guys for that, I appreciate it.

191
00:11:08,959 --> 00:11:12,170
I don't- I can't think of anything else
to post other than to tell you

192
00:11:12,629 --> 00:11:15,215
hopefully any other footage that I post,
you'll be able to see everything

193
00:11:15,215 --> 00:11:18,427
that's going on
from here, from there, from, you know,

194
00:11:19,428 --> 00:11:20,971
from here.

195
00:11:20,971 --> 00:11:23,724
So fingers crossed we get closer
to figuring out what's going on here.

196
00:11:23,724 --> 00:11:26,018
So thank you so much for being supportive.

197
00:11:26,018 --> 00:11:29,021
I really appreciate it.

Man, I don't even- I,

I don't even know where to start.

209
00:13:27,556 --> 00:13:30,559
I have no idea where I went

210
00:13:30,767 --> 00:13:33,770
for an hour in the middle of the night

211
00:13:34,187 --> 00:13:37,107
with a baseball bat.

212
00:13:37,107 --> 00:13:40,277
That is not at all good.

213
00:13:42,863 --> 00:13:47,534
I- so, I don't-
this is the bat, which weirdly,

214
00:13:47,534 --> 00:13:50,537
I just put back in the closet
when I came back inside.

215
00:13:50,787 --> 00:13:53,248
Apparently I'm better at cleaning up

216
00:13:53,248 --> 00:13:56,334
when I'm asleep than when I'm awake,
but I don't-

217
00:13:56,751 --> 00:14:01,214
I'm not sure what I would be looking for,
but I don't see anything.

218
00:14:01,631 --> 00:14:04,634
There's nothing on it
that would lead me to believe

219
00:14:05,302 --> 00:14:06,261
anything concerning,

220
00:14:06,261 --> 00:14:07,679
I guess is the best way to put it, right?

221
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:12,100
There's no chips or cracks that would show
that I was banging it on something.

222
00:14:12,642 --> 00:14:13,643
There's no stains,

223
00:14:14,769 --> 00:14:16,187
you know, mud.

224
00:14:16,187 --> 00:14:20,233
But, you know, obviously blood
is where my brain went first,

225
00:14:21,234 --> 00:14:24,070
but none of that is on here,
so I don't know.

226
00:14:24,070 --> 00:14:26,156
I guess I'm going to call that a win.

227
00:14:26,156 --> 00:14:28,742
As much as anything
can be a win in a situation like this.

228
00:14:28,742 --> 00:14:31,244
My hoodie is just gone.

229
00:14:31,244 --> 00:14:33,997
I don't even know how the hell
that happens.

230
00:14:33,997 --> 00:14:36,249
I left here with it on
and I came back here with it off,

231
00:14:36,249 --> 00:14:40,503
which sucks because it is always cold
in this house at night.

232
00:14:40,879 --> 00:14:44,174
This is probably the best clue
that I have here.

233
00:14:44,633 --> 00:14:45,342
I don't know if you can-

234
00:14:45,342 --> 00:14:45,884
can you see?

235
00:14:45,884 --> 00:14:46,718
Oh, hang on a second.

236
00:14:46,718 --> 00:14:49,721
You can't see that.

237
00:14:50,013 --> 00:14:50,221
Right.

238
00:14:50,221 --> 00:14:51,765
Can you see this?

239
00:14:51,765 --> 00:14:52,849
Can you see all these?

240
00:14:52,849 --> 00:14:53,642
Look at that.

241
00:14:53,642 --> 00:14:55,810
Just covered with, what are these, like, the-

242
00:14:55,810 --> 00:14:57,729
They call them like grabbers
or prickers or whatever.

243
00:14:57,729 --> 00:15:00,857
Like these little pieces
off of the- off of weeds.

244
00:15:00,857 --> 00:15:01,733
You know what I mean?

245
00:15:01,733 --> 00:15:03,360
Like they- travelers,

246
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:06,488
whatever they call them. This shit
looks like the leg of a bumblebee.

247
00:15:07,405 --> 00:15:10,408
So clearly I was wandering someplace

248
00:15:10,408 --> 00:15:14,371
wild, I guess, you know, like, the-
what do you call it?

249
00:15:14,371 --> 00:15:14,829
There's a bunch of-

250
00:15:14,829 --> 00:15:17,290
There's a retention pond over there,
a bunch of tall grass around it.

251
00:15:17,290 --> 00:15:18,958
And then beyond that,
there's the wilderness.

252
00:15:18,958 --> 00:15:22,128
So I'm thinking,
this has got to be what this means, right?

253
00:15:22,128 --> 00:15:24,798
Like,
you don't get this stuff all over you.

254
00:15:24,798 --> 00:15:26,716
And it's not just my pants.

255
00:15:26,716 --> 00:15:29,260
My feet were fucking filthy.

256
00:15:29,260 --> 00:15:32,013
I ruined a pair of sheets in the bedroom.

257
00:15:32,013 --> 00:15:34,724
I came back in here asleep.

258
00:15:34,724 --> 00:15:37,727
Just tuck those filthy fuckers
right down to the bottom of the sheets.

259
00:15:37,894 --> 00:15:41,147
Now, there's a huge strip of stains
on either side.

260
00:15:41,147 --> 00:15:43,441
The top sheet
and the bottom sheet, they’re totally ruined.

261
00:15:43,441 --> 00:15:44,609
So that's awesome.

262
00:15:44,609 --> 00:15:47,987
But, I mean, do- do the math
on all of that, you know what I mean?

263
00:15:47,987 --> 00:15:51,825
So the prickers that are all over
the pants, the stains on my feet. To me,

264
00:15:51,825 --> 00:15:55,078
all of that adds up to, the fact
that I walked off the porch--

265
00:15:55,995 --> 00:15:58,998
that tells me I must have just
been heading in that direction.

266
00:15:58,998 --> 00:15:59,541
Right?

267
00:15:59,541 --> 00:16:04,337
So I either walked down by the retention
pond into the deep grass,

268
00:16:04,337 --> 00:16:08,341
or perhaps even out into the woods,
so I don't know which it is.

269
00:16:10,969 --> 00:16:11,553
But it

270
00:16:11,553 --> 00:16:14,597
occurs to me that I came back
without my hoodie.

271
00:16:14,597 --> 00:16:16,724
So I suppose

272
00:16:16,724 --> 00:16:19,686
I could just go
look in the woods and the field

273
00:16:19,686 --> 00:16:22,689
to see if I can find my hoodie.

274
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,071
I'm starting to- oh, it's a squirrel.

275
00:16:30,071 --> 00:16:32,866
I'm starting to see the problem here

276
00:16:32,866 --> 00:16:35,910
with thinking that I could come
and try and find a hoodie.

277
00:16:36,494 --> 00:16:39,789
I'm just going to-

278
00:16:39,831 --> 00:16:40,540
I'll just show you.

279
00:16:40,540 --> 00:16:43,543
I don't think I need to tell you. This is...

280
00:16:43,835 --> 00:16:46,838
This is what I'm up against here,

281
00:16:47,046 --> 00:16:48,548
and it just-

282
00:16:48,548 --> 00:16:50,842
well, it just keeps going. Look at that.

283
00:16:50,842 --> 00:16:53,219
Basically forever.

284
00:16:53,219 --> 00:16:56,848
So, new expression just dropped.

285
00:16:56,890 --> 00:16:58,933
We're no longer saying
find a needle in a haystack.

286
00:16:58,933 --> 00:17:01,269
We are saying find a hoodie
in the wilderness.

287
00:17:01,269 --> 00:17:04,022
There's no way in hell
that I'm going to find anything in here.

288
00:17:04,022 --> 00:17:08,193
Also, as I'm looking, yes,
there are maybe spots here and there

289
00:17:08,484 --> 00:17:09,527
that you can, like push

290
00:17:09,527 --> 00:17:10,820
through in the- in the shrubs,

291
00:17:10,820 --> 00:17:13,781
but I don't see anything
that looks like a clear path.

292
00:17:13,781 --> 00:17:18,286
So if this is in fact where I went,
I- there is nothing that would evidence

293
00:17:18,286 --> 00:17:23,207
that I took some sort of a clear
and obvious path to get there. So...

294
00:17:24,542 --> 00:17:27,545
this was a fruitless endeavor.

295
00:17:28,129 --> 00:17:31,049
I guess the one thing that I can say
is that at least coming out here

296
00:17:31,049 --> 00:17:34,302
with a bat and wandering into
the wilderness is better than, I guess,

297
00:17:34,302 --> 00:17:38,348
wandering in amongst a bunch of houses,
with a bat in your hand.

298
00:17:39,891 --> 00:17:40,808
Unless-

299
00:17:40,808 --> 00:17:44,187
Unless, of course,
I wandered into the neighborhood

300
00:17:44,187 --> 00:17:46,314
with a bat in my hand
as well as the wilderness.

301
00:17:46,314 --> 00:17:49,150
In which case
that's a much bigger problem.

302
00:17:49,150 --> 00:17:53,321
I guess I should make a circuit over there
real quick and, see what I can find.

303
00:17:54,530 --> 00:17:57,533
Oh, actually,
you know what? I think that is-

304
00:17:57,575 --> 00:17:59,619
Yeah, that's the neighbor coming out.

305
00:17:59,619 --> 00:18:01,120
Let me see if I can catch him
before he leaves.

306
00:18:01,120 --> 00:18:03,998
See if he knows anything.

307
00:18:03,998 --> 00:18:04,999
No no no no no no no.

308
00:18:04,999 --> 00:18:07,126
Ah, shit. He's gone.

309
00:18:08,127 --> 00:18:10,672
I didn't make it.

310
00:18:10,672 --> 00:18:13,091
I didn't even see which way he went.

311
00:18:13,091 --> 00:18:14,258
Hear anything...

312
00:18:14,258 --> 00:18:14,592
Shit.

313
00:18:14,592 --> 00:18:17,095
Well,
maybe he'll be back in a little while.

314
00:18:17,095 --> 00:18:18,930
All right. Well,

315
00:18:18,930 --> 00:18:21,933
no solutions here, I guess.

316
00:18:22,558 --> 00:18:25,520
[phone ringing]

317
00:18:26,437 --> 00:18:27,230
-Hey. So, look,

318
00:18:27,230 --> 00:18:31,067
I- I don't want to tell you
a ton of information about this, okay?

319
00:18:31,067 --> 00:18:33,528
I don't want to get into, like,
too many details,

320
00:18:33,528 --> 00:18:36,531
but I want your opinion on something

321
00:18:36,614 --> 00:18:39,575
because you are a paralegal.

322
00:18:39,575 --> 00:18:42,578
-That's never a great way
to start a conversation.

323
00:18:42,578 --> 00:18:44,288
-No, well, look, just don't worry, I-

324
00:18:44,288 --> 00:18:47,291
I promise you that I'm not going to, like,
incriminate you or anything, okay?

325
00:18:47,542 --> 00:18:47,709
-Yeah.

326
00:18:47,709 --> 00:18:50,002
And that's an even more comforting
follow up.

327
00:18:50,002 --> 00:18:50,586
-No, listen.

328
00:18:50,586 --> 00:18:55,842
So, so I have been, sleepwalking lately.

329
00:18:56,843 --> 00:18:57,468
-Okay.

330
00:18:57,468 --> 00:19:01,931
-Around the house,
and then out of the house,

331
00:19:03,182 --> 00:19:06,060
with a baseball bat.

332
00:19:06,060 --> 00:19:07,728
-Jesus. Are you okay?

333
00:19:07,728 --> 00:19:09,313
What did you do?

334
00:19:09,313 --> 00:19:10,398
-No, no, no, no, nothing.

335
00:19:10,398 --> 00:19:13,109
I don't think I did anything at all.
-You don't think?!

336
00:19:13,109 --> 00:19:14,026
-No, no, no, that's what I'm saying.

337
00:19:14,026 --> 00:19:17,613
There is no evidence that I did
anything but, you know,

338
00:19:17,613 --> 00:19:20,032
sort of wander around in my sleep
with a baseball bat.

339
00:19:20,616 --> 00:19:24,287
-Well, I can understand why you didn't
want to get into too many details.

340
00:19:24,495 --> 00:19:25,621
-Okay.

341
00:19:25,621 --> 00:19:26,372
All fun here.

342
00:19:26,372 --> 00:19:28,833
Let's listen, I just
I had one main question, okay?

343
00:19:28,833 --> 00:19:32,086
I just want to know,
what is the legal status

344
00:19:32,086 --> 00:19:34,547
for something that you do
when you're asleep and sleepwalking?

345
00:19:34,547 --> 00:19:36,632
Like, can you- I don't know,

346
00:19:36,632 --> 00:19:39,635
can you get in trouble for things
that you do while you're unconscious?

347
00:19:40,052 --> 00:19:44,765
-Okay, so you understand that
I am a paralegal and not an attorney?

348
00:19:45,558 --> 00:19:48,144
-Yes, and I'm not asking for legal advice.

349
00:19:48,144 --> 00:19:49,979
I just want to know what you know.

350
00:19:49,979 --> 00:19:53,566
I already asked the chat AI agent,
but it refuses to give me any,

351
00:19:53,566 --> 00:19:57,945
like, actual legal advice, so-
-I refuse to give you legal advice, too.

352
00:19:57,987 --> 00:20:00,573
-Okay, well, I understand,
and I am not asking for that.

353
00:20:00,573 --> 00:20:03,743
I'm literally just asking what have you
heard of before in relation to this?

354
00:20:03,868 --> 00:20:07,788
Okay, so I know that sometimes
people have gotten off of crimes

355
00:20:07,788 --> 00:20:11,417
because if they're asleep,
no one can prove intent.

356
00:20:11,417 --> 00:20:13,002
But I also know that

357
00:20:13,002 --> 00:20:16,714
people have had to pay for damages
that they caused while sleepwalking,

358
00:20:17,048 --> 00:20:18,299
because they knew

359
00:20:18,299 --> 00:20:21,344
that they were a sleepwalker
and didn't do anything to stop themselves

360
00:20:21,344 --> 00:20:24,180
from hurting others
or hurting property or anything like that.

361
00:20:24,180 --> 00:20:27,350
So it's not really like
a simple yes or no answer.

362
00:20:28,434 --> 00:20:29,810
-Okay, well, okay.

363
00:20:29,810 --> 00:20:32,146
Well, first of all, I am doing stuff.

364
00:20:32,146 --> 00:20:33,689
I'm recording myself at night.

365
00:20:33,689 --> 00:20:35,399
I am working to try and figure out

366
00:20:35,399 --> 00:20:38,402
what is causing
the sleepwalking out of nowhere, you know?

367
00:20:39,362 --> 00:20:41,322
-Are you sure you're okay, man?

368
00:20:41,322 --> 00:20:44,325
I know everything at home isn't great,
you know?

369
00:20:44,325 --> 00:20:46,118
But you got to take care of yourself.

370
00:20:46,118 --> 00:20:48,496
-Yeah, no, I-

371
00:20:48,496 --> 00:20:50,498
listen, I'm-

372
00:20:50,498 --> 00:20:51,874
you know, I'm trying.

373
00:20:51,874 --> 00:20:53,167
It's...

374
00:20:53,167 --> 00:20:55,378
-You should be speaking to a professional.

375
00:20:55,378 --> 00:20:57,797
That way, there's, like, evidence

376
00:20:57,797 --> 00:21:00,758
that you're that you're trying to seek
help.

377
00:21:01,759 --> 00:21:02,718
-Oh, okay.

378
00:21:02,718 --> 00:21:05,221
Well, I actually I am working on that, so.

379
00:21:05,221 --> 00:21:05,680
-Okay, good.

380
00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,683
Well, you'll call me if you need anything,
right?

381
00:21:08,849 --> 00:21:11,102
-Yes, I swear I will.

382
00:21:11,102 --> 00:21:15,064
-And not just with crazy stories
about crazy shit

383
00:21:15,064 --> 00:21:19,360
that you did at night with a baseball bat.
-Yes.

384
00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:20,319
All right, I promise.

385
00:21:20,319 --> 00:21:22,363
And, we'll try and find some time soon.

386
00:21:22,363 --> 00:21:24,657
Maybe go grab some lunch
or something, okay?

387
00:21:24,657 --> 00:21:25,324
-Okay. Sounds good.

388
00:21:28,452 --> 00:21:28,786
Okay.

389
00:21:28,786 --> 00:21:32,206
Well, so I shared that footage
of my friend and I talking with you,

390
00:21:32,206 --> 00:21:33,249
even though I'm going to be honest,

391
00:21:33,249 --> 00:21:35,668
it was like some borderline
private stuff there.

392
00:21:35,668 --> 00:21:38,170
But the reason I shared it is because he's
now got me kind of like-

393
00:21:38,170 --> 00:21:42,633
he’s got me really nervous
because what he said was essentially,

394
00:21:43,092 --> 00:21:45,970
I could get in a huge amount of trouble,
even if I am unconscious.

395
00:21:45,970 --> 00:21:47,221
And that worries me a lot.

396
00:21:47,221 --> 00:21:52,184
So, I'm now going to basically
keep recording

397
00:21:52,685 --> 00:21:56,147
all the time, as much as humanly possible
for two reasons instead of just one.

398
00:21:56,397 --> 00:21:58,023
The first reason, which was before, is

399
00:21:58,023 --> 00:22:01,026
I want to figure out what's going on,
and this is the best way to do it.

400
00:22:01,068 --> 00:22:03,946
But secondly, I now think
it's probably the safest option

401
00:22:03,946 --> 00:22:06,824
to just have as much as possible
recorded all the time

402
00:22:06,824 --> 00:22:10,453
because if something happens
and I don't remember it,

403
00:22:10,453 --> 00:22:13,122
then it's someone else's word,
not even against my word.

404
00:22:13,122 --> 00:22:14,081
I have nothing.

405
00:22:14,081 --> 00:22:16,459
But if I have recordings,
then at least I know what happened.

406
00:22:16,459 --> 00:22:20,296
I've got some leg to stand on, so I'm just
going to try to record all the time.

407
00:22:20,296 --> 00:22:21,422
The reason that I don't know what happened

408
00:22:21,422 --> 00:22:24,550
last night is because I left the house
where there's no cameras, right?

409
00:22:25,176 --> 00:22:26,051
And it doesn't matter.

410
00:22:26,051 --> 00:22:28,929
I could put cameras on the outside
of the house pointing outward.

411
00:22:28,929 --> 00:22:33,267
The problem is, even if I do that,
if I walk far enough, like I probably did

412
00:22:33,267 --> 00:22:36,645
last night and went into the woods
or around the retention pond, eventually

413
00:22:36,645 --> 00:22:39,940
I get far away enough from the house
that the cameras won't see me anymore.

414
00:22:39,940 --> 00:22:42,943
And whenever I do that, there's, again,
footage missing

415
00:22:42,943 --> 00:22:45,946
and my word
or somebody else's word against nothing.

416
00:22:45,988 --> 00:22:48,991
So that is why I got this.

417
00:22:49,408 --> 00:22:54,079
It is, you wear- here, let me show you.
You wear it on your head like this.

418
00:22:56,957 --> 00:22:57,374
Boom.

419
00:22:57,374 --> 00:22:58,292
There we go. Look.

420
00:22:58,292 --> 00:23:01,295
See? So it's strapped to my head, hands
free.

421
00:23:01,337 --> 00:23:03,339
It moves where I move. Right?

422
00:23:03,339 --> 00:23:06,967
So now if I'm sleeping, it just monitors
me sleeping.

423
00:23:07,092 --> 00:23:08,260
If I get up and walk around.

424
00:23:08,260 --> 00:23:11,263
This is set to point
basically where my eyes and my face point.

425
00:23:11,472 --> 00:23:13,682
So wherever I'm looking, it's looking.

426
00:23:13,682 --> 00:23:16,435
So there's we're not going to run
into that same problem that we did

427
00:23:16,435 --> 00:23:17,186
before, right?

428
00:23:17,186 --> 00:23:19,730
Oh, and also: inside, I have some lights on.

429
00:23:19,730 --> 00:23:20,105
That's good.

430
00:23:20,105 --> 00:23:22,691
I can usually see. If I go outside,
God knows how dark it's going to be.

431
00:23:22,691 --> 00:23:25,694
But check this out,
got this little guy right here.

432
00:23:26,195 --> 00:23:27,988
Boom! Light, right?

433
00:23:27,988 --> 00:23:30,950
It's fantastic because I don't know
if the moon is going to be bright enough.

434
00:23:30,950 --> 00:23:32,284
I could be in the middle of the woods.

435
00:23:32,284 --> 00:23:35,120
But it doesn't matter now because I'm
bringing my light source with me.

436
00:23:35,120 --> 00:23:36,038
So that is awesome.

437
00:23:36,038 --> 00:23:39,458
And then the final piece of the missing
puzzle, which we talked about from before,

438
00:23:39,458 --> 00:23:41,418
which is that
there was some sound that I couldn't hear.

439
00:23:41,418 --> 00:23:46,006
Well, I just realized I'm using this
to record when, I'm doing these videos.

440
00:23:46,257 --> 00:23:47,466
Why not just keep this on?

441
00:23:47,466 --> 00:23:50,094
So I'm going to keep it on
when I go to bed. That way,

442
00:23:50,094 --> 00:23:50,594
you know what?

443
00:23:50,594 --> 00:23:52,930
If I come up with eight hours of nothing
but snoring? Fantastic.

444
00:23:52,930 --> 00:23:53,806
It means I made it through the night.

445
00:23:53,806 --> 00:23:56,809
But if not, at least I can hear what it is
that I'm saying and what's happening.

446
00:23:57,017 --> 00:24:00,062
So I think with these pieces
sort of all combined,

447
00:24:00,437 --> 00:24:03,649
that will be enough for there
to not be a circumstance like last night

448
00:24:03,857 --> 00:24:05,359
where I am left basically

449
00:24:05,359 --> 00:24:08,862
with just a huge hole in my memory,
in my activity that I can't solve.

450
00:24:09,113 --> 00:24:10,030
So that won't happen again.

451
00:24:10,030 --> 00:24:14,159
So that's, I think, really good news
and also not just that there's not a hole,

452
00:24:14,243 --> 00:24:16,120
but maybe I can see what's going on
and it'll help me

453
00:24:16,120 --> 00:24:18,580
to figure out what the what the fuck
this is all about.

454
00:24:18,580 --> 00:24:18,956
I don't know.

455
00:24:18,956 --> 00:24:21,667
I feel as crazy as last night was,

456
00:24:21,667 --> 00:24:24,253
and what has happened today,
I feel positive moving forward.

457
00:24:24,253 --> 00:24:27,131
I think I might be on the verge
of a breakthrough here,

458
00:24:27,131 --> 00:24:30,300
and that is largely because of a lot
of what you all have helped me with. So,

459
00:24:32,219 --> 00:24:35,222
thank you.

[grunting]

469
00:27:06,790 --> 00:27:10,961
So I don't know what the fuck
that was about.

470
00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:15,132
How- how would you even explain?

471
00:27:15,674 --> 00:27:18,260
I- so here's the thing.

472
00:27:18,260 --> 00:27:21,054
I know I haven't been on my exercise
regimen since I moved out.

473
00:27:21,054 --> 00:27:22,889
You know,
I know I've let myself go a little bit.

474
00:27:22,889 --> 00:27:27,311
So is it possible, subconsciously,
that I'm like,

475
00:27:27,769 --> 00:27:30,147
I recognize that I need exercise.

476
00:27:30,147 --> 00:27:33,233
And so I was doing whatever the fuck
all of that was last night?

477
00:27:33,233 --> 00:27:35,027
I don't know. The therapist
who posted yesterday.

478
00:27:35,027 --> 00:27:38,739
I read over what, what he posted
and I think there's something to it.

479
00:27:38,739 --> 00:27:41,867
I think it's interesting he talked about
the idea of digging into the things

480
00:27:42,159 --> 00:27:44,953
that I think might be connected
to the sleepwalking, right?

481
00:27:44,953 --> 00:27:47,748
Basically, the way he described
it is try to stir something up

482
00:27:47,748 --> 00:27:49,708
if you think it's related
to the sleepwalking.

483
00:27:49,708 --> 00:27:52,169
And then, since I'm recording
what's happening,

484
00:27:52,169 --> 00:27:55,338
I can see if there's an impact on it, right?

485
00:27:55,547 --> 00:27:57,841
Do I stop sleepwalking? Does it get worse?

486
00:27:57,841 --> 00:27:58,592
And then I can-

487
00:27:58,592 --> 00:28:01,595
maybe that will show me that there's
some connective tissue between the thing

488
00:28:01,678 --> 00:28:05,307
that I'm pressing on, that psychological
pressure point, and the sleepwalking.

489
00:28:05,974 --> 00:28:07,893
That made a lot of sense to me.

490
00:28:07,893 --> 00:28:11,772
I went to the chat AI agent,
and I mentioned the idea to it. The-

491
00:28:11,813 --> 00:28:13,690
I didn't get quite the same information.

492
00:28:13,690 --> 00:28:18,278
They talked a bit about something
called, exposure therapy or cognitive

493
00:28:18,278 --> 00:28:21,406
behavioral therapy,
which I guess is just doing something

494
00:28:21,406 --> 00:28:24,117
you don't like enough
that you become used to it or something?

495
00:28:24,117 --> 00:28:25,786
I don't know, it wasn't recommending it.

496
00:28:25,786 --> 00:28:28,246
It seemed mostly
informational. And frankly,

497
00:28:29,748 --> 00:28:31,458
it's very reticent to give me

498
00:28:31,458 --> 00:28:34,586
any information related to health
and wellness and medication and stuff.

499
00:28:34,586 --> 00:28:37,547
So I guess not a huge surprise
that I didn’t get a lot of help there.

500
00:28:37,547 --> 00:28:40,675
But what the therapist says
does make sense to me.

501
00:28:40,675 --> 00:28:43,678
So what I was thinking

502
00:28:44,262 --> 00:28:46,973
was the- I guess, the obvious, right?

503
00:28:46,973 --> 00:28:50,560
Mary Alice and I have not

504
00:28:51,311 --> 00:28:54,689
spoken, haven't talked since I moved out.

505
00:28:54,689 --> 00:28:55,816
I mean, we've communicated.

506
00:28:55,816 --> 00:28:59,110
We texted twice, once
about an insurance thing,

507
00:28:59,110 --> 00:29:03,406
and then one time she wrote me
to find out where the tax papers were.

508
00:29:03,824 --> 00:29:06,827
But that's all the communication
that we've had.

509
00:29:07,327 --> 00:29:10,330
And it is very clear to me
that I think she doesn't

510
00:29:10,622 --> 00:29:12,874
she just doesn't want to talk to me.

511
00:29:12,874 --> 00:29:14,960
So... but I thought

512
00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,046
maybe I could tell her
what's happening here. And

513
00:29:19,214 --> 00:29:22,634
I don't- I don't know what. At least she'll know.

514
00:29:22,634 --> 00:29:23,760
I'll know that she'll know.

515
00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:26,012
Does it- will that have some

516
00:29:26,012 --> 00:29:27,013
kind of an impact?

517
00:29:27,013 --> 00:29:29,891
I don't know. But anyway, that's-

518
00:29:29,891 --> 00:29:31,101
So that's what I'm going to do.

519
00:29:31,101 --> 00:29:34,104
I'm just going to give her a call
and we see.

[phone ringing]

521
00:29:46,366 --> 00:29:48,076
-Hello?
-Hey.

522
00:29:48,076 --> 00:29:49,536
I wasn't sure if you were going to be in.

523
00:29:49,536 --> 00:29:51,204
Am I interrupting anything?

524
00:29:51,204 --> 00:29:52,622
-No. It's just it's fine.

525
00:29:52,622 --> 00:29:54,332
I'm just taking a break.

526
00:29:54,332 --> 00:29:55,375
-Okay.

527
00:29:55,375 --> 00:29:57,168
Oh, right. It's Tuesday.

528
00:29:57,168 --> 00:30:00,046
So you had the, um...
-Yeah.

529
00:30:00,046 --> 00:30:03,049
-Yeah, right. So it was good?

530
00:30:03,049 --> 00:30:03,800
-It's fine.

531
00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,719
Did you need something?

532
00:30:05,719 --> 00:30:06,595
-Right. Yeah.

533
00:30:06,595 --> 00:30:09,598
I was...

534
00:30:10,557 --> 00:30:13,602
-Do you know yet when you're going to be able
to pick up the rest of these boxes?

535
00:30:14,019 --> 00:30:18,023
Where they're stacked, it's really hard
to get in on a picture and everything. So...

536
00:30:18,815 --> 00:30:20,442
-Right. Sorry about that.

537
00:30:20,442 --> 00:30:21,610
Yeah. It will not be long.

538
00:30:21,610 --> 00:30:23,653
I need to,

539
00:30:23,653 --> 00:30:27,824
I just need to rent a, you know, whatever you
call- storage unit. I’ll get that, and then-

540
00:30:27,824 --> 00:30:29,117
yeah, then I can come by to get them.

541
00:30:29,117 --> 00:30:31,369
It probably shouldn't
be more than a couple days.

542
00:30:32,329 --> 00:30:32,746
-Okay.

543
00:30:32,746 --> 00:30:35,749
If it's going to be later than Saturday,
though, could you let me know?

544
00:30:35,749 --> 00:30:38,668
I can always ask Ann to help me
move them into the garage.

545
00:30:38,668 --> 00:30:41,379
-No, you don't have to-
I can move them for you.

546
00:30:41,379 --> 00:30:44,674
-There's no reason for you
to come back here just to move the boxes

547
00:30:44,674 --> 00:30:45,759
somewhere else in the house.

548
00:30:45,759 --> 00:30:46,968
You could just come when

549
00:30:46,968 --> 00:30:49,554
you're ready to take them.

550
00:30:49,554 --> 00:30:50,472
-Okay.

551
00:30:50,472 --> 00:30:52,265
Yeah.

552
00:30:52,265 --> 00:30:53,725
Yeah. It shouldn't be later than Saturday.

553
00:30:53,725 --> 00:30:59,647
So- anyway, I was-
there was something that I wanted to-

554
00:30:59,689 --> 00:31:04,152
to talk to you about or, well,
ask you about, I guess, too. Which is-

555
00:31:05,570 --> 00:31:09,115
have you ever seen me sleepwalking?

556
00:31:09,115 --> 00:31:12,118
Like, getting up, walking around the house.

557
00:31:12,744 --> 00:31:15,163
-What? No.

558
00:31:15,163 --> 00:31:15,705
-Okay.

559
00:31:15,705 --> 00:31:19,334
Well, so that means then,
that I have just started

560
00:31:19,334 --> 00:31:21,377
sleepwalking over the last few days.

561
00:31:21,377 --> 00:31:22,337
Like, a lot.

562
00:31:22,337 --> 00:31:25,006
I'm walking around inside the house.
I went outside of the house.

563
00:31:26,966 --> 00:31:29,010
-Okay, well,

564
00:31:29,010 --> 00:31:31,096
I guess that's strange.

565
00:31:31,096 --> 00:31:32,430
-Yeah, yeah. It is.

566
00:31:32,430 --> 00:31:36,351
So, anyway, I've been speaking with
some people who've dealt with it before

567
00:31:36,559 --> 00:31:38,019
and a lot of their advice,

568
00:31:38,019 --> 00:31:41,564
what they're saying to me
basically is try and figure out

569
00:31:42,107 --> 00:31:45,068
what's causing it.

570
00:31:45,819 --> 00:31:48,822
-And that's why you're calling me?
-Yes.

571
00:31:48,822 --> 00:31:50,281
-Because it's my fault.

572
00:31:50,281 --> 00:31:52,325
No! No, no, I did not mean it like that.

573
00:31:52,325 --> 00:31:55,120
I was- I just meant that it wasn't-

574
00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,038
I mean, it wasn't happening
when I was there. Obviously.

575
00:31:57,038 --> 00:31:58,206
You just said that. Right?

576
00:31:58,206 --> 00:32:01,751
So it just-
it started when I moved in here.

577
00:32:02,627 --> 00:32:04,254
-And that's my fault, too?

578
00:32:04,254 --> 00:32:06,047
-I'm not trying to start a fight.

579
00:32:06,047 --> 00:32:06,756
I swear.

580
00:32:06,756 --> 00:32:10,844
I just- they said to think about things
that have changed in your life recently

581
00:32:11,052 --> 00:32:13,763
and then- I don't know,
they might be connected.

582
00:32:13,763 --> 00:32:16,724
-So of all the things,
that's the one you decided on.

583
00:32:16,724 --> 00:32:19,602
It couldn't be that maybe
you spent so much time on your phone

584
00:32:19,602 --> 00:32:22,730
and your computer,
not doing anything or feeling anything,

585
00:32:22,730 --> 00:32:26,860
that the only way you can get any freedom
from the constant noise and input

586
00:32:27,026 --> 00:32:30,280
and anxiety is to just get up and go
somewhere at night,

587
00:32:30,738 --> 00:32:33,575
when you're sleeping
everything's finally quiet?

588
00:32:34,576 --> 00:32:36,160
But I'm sure that's not it.

589
00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:38,079
It must be my fault.

590
00:32:38,079 --> 00:32:41,082
-I did not say that it was your fault.

591
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,670
-I need to go, and I would prefer that
if there's something else you need,

592
00:32:45,670 --> 00:32:47,714
unless it's about coming to get these boxes,

593
00:32:47,714 --> 00:32:50,717
could you just communicate through text?

594
00:32:51,134 --> 00:32:53,803
-Yeah.

595
00:32:53,803 --> 00:32:56,681
-I'm not here to be your therapist.

596
00:32:56,681 --> 00:32:59,684
You have a machine for that.

597
00:33:08,109 --> 00:33:11,112
Well.

598
00:33:12,071 --> 00:33:13,781
I guess we'll see how I sleep

599
00:33:13,781 --> 00:33:16,326
tonight.

Oh my God! What did I do? What did I do?

617
00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:24,847
What did I do?

618
00:36:24,847 --> 00:36:27,224
What the fuck is going on?

619
00:36:27,224 --> 00:36:30,227

[camera clunking]

631
00:38:18,586 --> 00:38:20,880
Do you see how fucking big this thing is? Here-

632
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:26,760
Can you see how big this thing is?

633
00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:28,846
Look at the-

634
00:38:28,846 --> 00:38:30,639
That is how far that would protrude

635
00:38:30,639 --> 00:38:33,642
into my fucking head if I stabbed myself
in the eyeball with this.

636
00:38:33,976 --> 00:38:37,605
And I was running at an all-out sprint
last night to get back to this house

637
00:38:38,189 --> 00:38:40,983
with this thing
in my hand, inches away from my eyeball,

638
00:38:40,983 --> 00:38:43,986
full-out sprint.

639
00:38:44,486 --> 00:38:46,030
That should have been

640
00:38:46,030 --> 00:38:49,033
the most terrifying thing
that happened to me last night.

641
00:38:49,575 --> 00:38:51,702
It came in second

642
00:38:51,702 --> 00:38:54,788
because there is a faceless man
waving at me

643
00:38:54,788 --> 00:38:57,791
in the fucking woods.

644
00:39:00,586 --> 00:39:01,921
I don't have anything else to say.

645
00:39:01,921 --> 00:39:04,298
Like that's
the end of a conversation, right?

646
00:39:04,298 --> 00:39:05,925
How do I follow that up?

647
00:39:05,925 --> 00:39:08,928
What the fuck is going on?

648
00:39:09,053 --> 00:39:11,680
I'm- are these separate incidents?

649
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,098
I'm sleepwalking.

650
00:39:13,098 --> 00:39:15,643
I walk out of the house
with a weapon in my hands,

651
00:39:15,643 --> 00:39:18,646
not aware of the fact that I'm doing it,
don't know why I'm doing it.

652
00:39:18,896 --> 00:39:19,813
And I end up in the woods.

653
00:39:19,813 --> 00:39:24,944
And for the first time while
I'm recording, I see a man with no face.

654
00:39:25,361 --> 00:39:28,906
I don't know- I don't know what he is,
standing in the woods like he's fucking

655
00:39:28,906 --> 00:39:29,740
waiting for me.

656
00:39:34,453 --> 00:39:37,456
The fuck is going on?

657
00:39:38,457 --> 00:39:40,793
I would ask
if anybody else here has experienced this

658
00:39:40,793 --> 00:39:44,463
but there is no fucking way
anyone else here has experienced this.

659
00:39:44,838 --> 00:39:47,383
And no offense to you,
if you didn't record it,

660
00:39:47,383 --> 00:39:50,844
you would feel like I feel, which is that
you probably dreamt the fucking thing,

661
00:39:52,304 --> 00:39:55,224
but a head camera doesn't capture a dream.

662
00:39:55,224 --> 00:39:58,227
So whatever I saw really fucking happened.

663
00:40:06,443 --> 00:40:07,528
I have spent

664
00:40:07,528 --> 00:40:11,532
the last three hours trying to come up
with a way that any of this

665
00:40:12,199 --> 00:40:15,202
could make sense to anyone else, or to me.

666
00:40:15,619 --> 00:40:16,829
I'd be satisfied with it

667
00:40:16,829 --> 00:40:18,997
making sense to me.

668
00:40:18,997 --> 00:40:22,000
And the only thing I came to was

669
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:24,712
one of- I apologize,

670
00:40:24,712 --> 00:40:27,715
I don't remember who it was,
but one of you posted

671
00:40:28,173 --> 00:40:31,093
and you talked about- it
was the thing about the dream catcher.

672
00:40:31,093 --> 00:40:32,803
You know what I'm talking about?

673
00:40:32,803 --> 00:40:35,264
You guys can go back and look,
I don't remember all the details,

674
00:40:35,264 --> 00:40:38,267
but he was saying something
about how he was having the night terrors.

675
00:40:38,267 --> 00:40:40,936
He didn't know where they were coming
from, why they were happening.

676
00:40:40,936 --> 00:40:42,730
And then it was when he just-

677
00:40:42,730 --> 00:40:47,025
he discovered that there was a dream
catcher in the closet of his house.

678
00:40:47,526 --> 00:40:50,529
And when he found it and he threw it away,
he said the night terrors stopped.

679
00:40:51,613 --> 00:40:53,907
Now, I'm not trying to be offensive

680
00:40:53,907 --> 00:40:56,910
to anyone's beliefs or anything like that,
I promise you, but

681
00:40:57,786 --> 00:40:58,996
it was his house.

682
00:40:58,996 --> 00:41:01,248
You were the only one that lived
there, is what you said.

683
00:41:01,248 --> 00:41:04,084
Which means you had to be
the one that brought it in there, right?

684
00:41:04,084 --> 00:41:08,172
So the insinuation, it seemed like, was
you were saying

685
00:41:08,422 --> 00:41:11,425
it was some supernatural issue
causing the terrors.

686
00:41:11,425 --> 00:41:13,635
And when you got rid of this thing,
it stopped.

687
00:41:13,635 --> 00:41:17,431
But if you brought it in there,
then you knew subconsciously it was there.

688
00:41:18,015 --> 00:41:20,517
Is that why you were having night terrors?

689
00:41:20,517 --> 00:41:22,478
Because you knew it was there.

690
00:41:22,478 --> 00:41:25,439
And when your conscious mind found it
and you got rid of it,

691
00:41:25,439 --> 00:41:28,442
that's when it cleared up.

692
00:41:28,859 --> 00:41:29,985
I'm not diagnosing you.

693
00:41:29,985 --> 00:41:32,446
I'm just saying
that's what I thought of your situation.

694
00:41:32,446 --> 00:41:35,532
And now that's the only fucking thing
that makes any sense to me.

695
00:41:36,825 --> 00:41:38,452
Is it possible

696
00:41:38,452 --> 00:41:41,622
that I knew that there was someone...
I don't want to say stalking me.

697
00:41:41,622 --> 00:41:43,582
I don't know if it's stalking,
but following me,

698
00:41:43,582 --> 00:41:45,542
at least. Some guy in the woods.

699
00:41:45,542 --> 00:41:48,879
Some guy I've seen out of the corner
of my eye somewhere, something didn't

700
00:41:48,879 --> 00:41:53,550
quite register to my conscious mind,
but I somehow like some, you know, lizard

701
00:41:53,550 --> 00:41:57,888
part of my brain is aware that there's
a guy watching me and that I feel danger.

702
00:41:58,722 --> 00:42:03,227
So maybe when I'm asleep, I'm waking up,
I'm walking around, I'm monitoring.

703
00:42:03,977 --> 00:42:05,812
I'm grabbing a fucking baseball bat.

704
00:42:05,812 --> 00:42:08,941
I'm grabbing a barbecue fork,
and I'm going looking around to see

705
00:42:08,941 --> 00:42:14,029
if there's someone out here
that's a threat to me.

706
00:42:18,242 --> 00:42:21,286
That worries me, as does the man outside.

707
00:42:23,413 --> 00:42:28,585
But I feel like I want to believe
that more than I want to believe

708
00:42:28,585 --> 00:42:31,588
any other possible explanation for this.

709
00:42:34,007 --> 00:42:36,885
It sounds insane for me to ask you this,
but if there is anybody

710
00:42:36,885 --> 00:42:40,180
who has any experience
even remotely approaching

711
00:42:40,180 --> 00:42:43,183
what I am describing
and what you saw in the video, please,

712
00:42:44,351 --> 00:42:44,935
please share.

713
00:42:44,935 --> 00:42:46,103
I don't care if you think it's

714
00:42:46,103 --> 00:42:48,146
the most tenuous connection,
please just share something.

715
00:42:48,146 --> 00:42:51,233
I need someone to help me understand
what the fuck is happening.

716
00:42:52,317 --> 00:42:57,072
I don't know what to do next.

Obviously there's a lot to talk about,
but I-

725
00:48:36,869 --> 00:48:38,580
first of all, I don't know how to approach
a lot of this.

726
00:48:38,580 --> 00:48:42,125
And secondly,
I have not made a real meal in days.

727
00:48:42,125 --> 00:48:43,751
That probably does not surprise you.

728
00:48:43,751 --> 00:48:44,836
So I am not-

729
00:48:44,836 --> 00:48:45,753
I can't put it off any more.

I'm trying to get some sense of normalcy
back in my life,

731
00:48:47,922 --> 00:48:50,008
so I'm going to make some food
while I'm talking about this.

732
00:48:50,008 --> 00:48:51,718
Maybe that'll help me too.
I don't know, work it out.

733
00:48:51,718 --> 00:48:55,179
But,

734
00:48:55,263 --> 00:48:58,308
I don't know,
I genuinely don't know how to look

at my face in the mirror awake

736
00:49:02,061 --> 00:49:05,064
and understand how this level

737
00:49:06,691 --> 00:49:10,069
of anger and violence exists inside of me,

738
00:49:11,112 --> 00:49:14,115
towards me.

739
00:49:14,157 --> 00:49:16,034
Not that it should be towards anyone,

740
00:49:16,034 --> 00:49:18,911
but how do I not know about it?

741
00:49:18,911 --> 00:49:20,872
How can I be that angry?

742
00:49:20,872 --> 00:49:22,915
Want to do something that

743
00:49:22,915 --> 00:49:25,543
fucking horrible?

744
00:49:25,543 --> 00:49:27,795
But only when I'm asleep?

745
00:49:27,795 --> 00:49:29,839
And during the day,

I don't-

747
00:49:30,757 --> 00:49:33,760
I don't feel any of that at all.

748
00:49:35,720 --> 00:49:37,513
I know, I know other people.

749
00:49:37,513 --> 00:49:40,683
I mean, I'm not super close with them,
but I know other people, distant family

750
00:49:40,683 --> 00:49:44,020
members or friends of friends
who have dealt with issues like,

751
00:49:44,687 --> 00:49:47,148
you know,
negative thoughts or suicidal ideation

752

and things like that.

753
00:49:50,318 --> 00:49:52,737
I don't know anybody who has ever said
that they don't

754
00:49:52,737 --> 00:49:56,616
remember it happening, or they don't
know that they feel that way.

And I-

757
00:50:06,584 --> 00:50:06,918
I don't

758
00:50:06,918 --> 00:50:10,797
know how to get my head around the idea
that there is a hatred in me.

759
00:50:10,797 --> 00:50:12,590
For me, it's got to be a hatred.

760
00:50:12,590 --> 00:50:15,593
Why would you do that
to someone that you cared about?

761
00:50:17,386 --> 00:50:19,138
And then I, and I don't

762
00:50:19,138 --> 00:50:23,017
right now have any feeling,
any understanding, or any memory of that.

763
00:50:24,769 --> 00:50:27,897
It- what it reminds me of is

764
00:50:29,065 --> 00:50:31,067
phantom limb syndrome.

765
00:50:31,067 --> 00:50:31,901
You've heard of that?

766
00:50:31,901 --> 00:50:35,446
It's that- so,
like when people in the military, like,

767
00:50:35,446 --> 00:50:38,241
they lose a limb, you know, like a bomb
explodes or an IED or something.

768
00:50:38,241 --> 00:50:39,909
They lose an arm, they lose a leg.

769
00:50:39,909 --> 00:50:43,037
You get a situation
where they are continuing

770
00:50:43,037 --> 00:50:45,998
to feel feelings about something

Their arm itches or they've got
a muscle cramp in their leg.

772
00:50:50,419 --> 00:50:52,588
But there is no arm. There is no leg.

773

And yet they feel it.

774
00:50:54,340 --> 00:50:56,676
And so they're stuck with this feeling

775
00:50:56,676 --> 00:50:58,636
that's coming from
a place that doesn't exist.

It's like the opposite for me.

something absolutely does exist.

I looked at it on camera last night,
but I don't feel anything about it.

to influence me while I'm sleepwalking.

I can't even call the police.

Because if I show them the video

that's got me fucking scared,
they're going to see that

805
00:53:45,344 --> 00:53:47,680
I opened the door for him,

806
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:49,765
so he's not even trespassing.

807
00:53:49,765 --> 00:53:52,768
I basically let him in.

I know you didn't want me to call,
but I have to call you

because it's the only way that I can
apologize to you about the last call.

I've been thinking about it a lot,
all right?

And I didn't mean to make it sound like
I thought that it was your fault.

I'm just telling you because it's
something that's happening to me.

And I always told you everything
that was happening to me.

00:56:33,220 --> 00:56:36,223
about why it's happening,

851
00:56:36,265 --> 00:56:39,268
and I do think that it's related to you.

I'm not saying it's your fault.

the first place
my hand goes is to the space

in the bed next to me,
and there is nothing there.

It's just cold sheets.

859
00:57:04,293 --> 00:57:07,296
And all I can think about

00:57:07,796 --> 00:57:09,965
is the silence of this house.

00:57:13,635 --> 00:57:14,595

00:57:15,762 --> 00:57:18,765
I turn the faucet on when I get up.

That you're gone, that there is
an enormous hole blown in my life.

And it hurts to hear nothing
but the echo of my own feet

and nothing else in this house.

To feel the cold of the sheets next to me.

871
00:57:40,662 --> 00:57:43,081
I think that I am just getting up

872
00:57:43,081 --> 00:57:46,084
in the middle of the night
to get away from how that feels.

873
00:57:48,420 --> 00:57:51,423
I'm just trying to not have to face

874
00:57:52,174 --> 00:57:55,177
the reality that you are sleeping well

and you are sleeping somewhere else,

876
00:57:58,639 --> 00:58:01,224
and it is your choice to be there

877
00:58:01,224 --> 00:58:04,227
without me.

878
00:58:04,394 --> 00:58:07,522
And nothing in the world when I'm awake

879
00:58:08,273 --> 00:58:11,652
has an answer for me and not my friend,
and not the forum

and not the fucking agent program.

That is why I am asking you.

I don't understand what's going on,

but I now at least know
that someone else is involved.

913
01:03:13,369 --> 01:03:16,456
So if I can just get someone else
to witness

914
01:03:16,456 --> 01:03:20,084
it, to see him, then you know, maybe...

Fuck, I don't know.

916
01:03:22,295 --> 01:03:24,172
But we could figure it out from there

917
01:03:24,172 --> 01:03:25,590
at least.

that the separation has been hard, okay?

You guys have been together

It probably feels like
everything is falling apart.

I get it, I've been there.

923

I understand, but you cannot use
that as an excuse to do stuff like this.

it's manipulative.

01:03:55,745 --> 01:03:58,748
I wouldn't do this to you.

932
01:03:59,749 --> 01:04:01,960
-Do you think that I'm making this up?

933
01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:04,295
You do, don't you?

934
01:04:04,295 --> 01:04:07,298
-What I think is-

935
01:04:07,632 --> 01:04:11,511
I think that what's happening in
those videos is not the same thing

936
01:04:11,511 --> 01:04:12,804
as what's happening in real life.

937
01:04:12,804 --> 01:04:15,556
-Jesus Christ, man, are you serious?

938
01:04:15,556 --> 01:04:17,725
-Okay, tell me what sounds more
believable to you,

939
01:04:17,725 --> 01:04:18,309
okay?

940
01:04:18,309 --> 01:04:23,147
That a man who looks exactly
like you came onto your porch, hugged you

941
01:04:23,147 --> 01:04:24,565
while you were sleepwalking,

942
01:04:24,565 --> 01:04:27,944
or that you're fabricating
this whole situation as,

943
01:04:27,944 --> 01:04:31,114
I don't know, a cry for
help or a call for attention?

944
01:04:33,866 --> 01:04:34,993
-Okay, well, you know what?

945
01:04:34,993 --> 01:04:38,204
I will not bother you with this anymore,

946
01:04:38,204 --> 01:04:41,207
okay?

947
01:04:45,837 --> 01:04:48,840
My wife doesn't want to talk to me.

948
01:04:50,049 --> 01:04:53,052
My friend thinks that I'm lying to him.

949
01:04:55,513 --> 01:04:58,099
I don't trust anybody else in my life

950
01:04:58,099 --> 01:05:01,060
enough to talk to them about whatever
the fuck is happening to me.

951
01:05:02,103 --> 01:05:06,274
And I can tell from the comments that

952
01:05:08,026 --> 01:05:11,028
none of you think
that any of this is really happening.

953
01:05:12,071 --> 01:05:15,199
I ask the chat agent program,

954
01:05:15,199 --> 01:05:18,745
what that means, being alone and what- I-

955
01:05:19,078 --> 01:05:21,372
I don't need to fucking get into it.
You know what's going on.

956
01:05:21,372 --> 01:05:23,416
You know what the chat agent told me?

957
01:05:23,416 --> 01:05:26,419
I need to speak with a mental health
professional.

958
01:05:27,295 --> 01:05:29,547
Thanks.

959
01:05:29,547 --> 01:05:31,424
I bought some stuff,

960
01:05:31,424 --> 01:05:33,801
and I think to the untrained eye,

961
01:05:33,801 --> 01:05:37,138
it might look like a warning sign.

962
01:05:41,476 --> 01:05:44,479
Like diazepam, for example.

963
01:05:46,814 --> 01:05:49,233
Or handcuffs.

964
01:05:49,233 --> 01:05:52,278
I know it seems like I'm describing
something

965
01:05:52,570 --> 01:05:56,657
that might seem like suicide, but I'm not.

966
01:05:58,367 --> 01:06:01,370
Diazepam is for anxiety,

967
01:06:02,371 --> 01:06:05,833
but it has other functions,
or at least other

968
01:06:07,001 --> 01:06:08,836
reactions.

969
01:06:08,836 --> 01:06:11,047
If you take enough diazepam,

970
01:06:11,047 --> 01:06:14,050
it will cause breathing problems.

971
01:06:14,175 --> 01:06:17,178
It can put you into a coma,

972
01:06:17,470 --> 01:06:20,389
it can kill you.

973
01:06:20,389 --> 01:06:23,392
That is not my plan.

974
01:06:25,061 --> 01:06:28,064
I understand something, I think,

975
01:06:28,731 --> 01:06:30,525
about

976
01:06:30,525 --> 01:06:32,026
whoever this is.

977
01:06:32,026 --> 01:06:34,153
The man, the one that looks like me.

978
01:06:34,153 --> 01:06:36,656
I think I understand something.

979
01:06:36,656 --> 01:06:38,574
I don't know why,

980
01:06:38,574 --> 01:06:41,536
but it seems like he cares about me.

981
01:06:41,536 --> 01:06:42,411
That sounds weird.

982
01:06:42,411 --> 01:06:45,414
I know- stalker...

983
01:06:46,707 --> 01:06:49,710
He's protective

984
01:06:50,419 --> 01:06:51,712
in some way.

985
01:06:51,712 --> 01:06:53,130
When I first saw him. What did he do?

986
01:06:53,130 --> 01:06:54,674
He didn't attack me.

987
01:06:54,674 --> 01:06:57,301
He waved.

988
01:06:57,301 --> 01:07:00,096
When I was in the pool,

989
01:07:00,096 --> 01:07:04,100
face down for what seemed like forever.
It was him,

990
01:07:04,100 --> 01:07:06,352
His presence
that got me up out of the water.

991
01:07:06,352 --> 01:07:07,645
He was the one that called me out.

992
01:07:08,896 --> 01:07:11,023
He gave
me a fucking hug, for Christ's sake.

993
01:07:11,023 --> 01:07:12,483
What does any of that mean?

994
01:07:12,483 --> 01:07:15,486
I don't know, but it seems like he cares.

995
01:07:15,486 --> 01:07:18,406
He's trying to protect me.

996
01:07:18,406 --> 01:07:21,534
If that's the only piece of information
I have about him, then I have to use it.

997
01:07:22,952 --> 01:07:25,955
So I'm going to use it.

998
01:07:26,080 --> 01:07:29,625
I'm going to handcuff myself
to something that I can't get away from.

999
01:07:29,625 --> 01:07:31,002
So I can't go sleepwalking.

1000
01:07:31,002 --> 01:07:33,379
I can't go anywhere.

1001
01:07:33,379 --> 01:07:36,257
And I'm going to take these pills.

1002
01:07:36,257 --> 01:07:39,802
And as I imagine he has many nights
that I haven't even noticed,

1003
01:07:39,802 --> 01:07:42,805
and all of the nights that I have,
I'm sure he's going to find me

1004
01:07:43,848 --> 01:07:46,809
and he's going to have a choice to make.

1005
01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:50,688
He can either show himself
to someone other than me

1006
01:07:51,856 --> 01:07:54,650
by taking me to the hospital,

1007
01:07:54,650 --> 01:07:58,195
calling 911, getting help
from someone else somewhere around here

1008
01:07:58,904 --> 01:08:02,408
so that someone in the world other than me
believes that he fucking exists,

1009
01:08:02,408 --> 01:08:03,492
and that I didn't make him up.

1010
01:08:03,492 --> 01:08:06,037
And I'm not pretending.

1011
01:08:06,037 --> 01:08:09,040
Or if he doesn't want to expose himself.

1012
01:08:11,083 --> 01:08:14,086
Then he watches me die.

1013
01:08:20,968 --> 01:08:21,635
Bold plan,

1014
01:08:21,635 --> 01:08:23,304
right?

1015
01:08:23,304 --> 01:08:26,307
If he wants me to be okay,
he will get me help.

1016
01:08:26,724 --> 01:08:29,727
If he doesn't want me to be okay, I-

1017
01:08:30,644 --> 01:08:33,647
I don't think that that's going to happen.

1018
01:08:37,193 --> 01:08:40,196
But even if it does.

1019
01:08:40,571 --> 01:08:42,198
Honestly,

1020
01:08:42,198 --> 01:08:45,201
who gives a fuck?

Hello, everyone.

1060
01:17:45,365 --> 01:17:47,117
It's time to let you in on the act.

1061
01:17:47,117 --> 01:17:49,536
I know that many of you have thought
all along

1062
01:17:49,536 --> 01:17:52,539
that some of the things I've been sharing
here have been fraudulent.

1063
01:17:53,081 --> 01:17:54,624
Well, congratulations.

1064
01:17:54,624 --> 01:17:56,793
You got me. It's true.

1065
01:17:56,793 --> 01:17:59,629
Some of the things I've been sharing with
you have, in fact, been true.

1066
01:17:59,629 --> 01:18:01,673
But some of them have been deceitful.

1067
01:18:01,673 --> 01:18:03,883
And I'd like to apologize to you for that.

1068
01:18:03,883 --> 01:18:07,095
It's not fair for me to come to you
as if I'm confessing things,

1069
01:18:07,095 --> 01:18:10,098
only for you to later
find out that they are, in fact, wrong.

1070
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:13,601
I apologize
for putting you in a state of discomfort.

1071
01:18:13,601 --> 01:18:16,479
However,
it is important for me to tell you

1072
01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:19,899
and that you should know that
some of these things were in fact true.

1073
01:18:20,650 --> 01:18:23,111
I am living in a new place by myself.

1074
01:18:23,111 --> 01:18:25,321
I was in fact struggling
with sleepwalking,

1075
01:18:25,321 --> 01:18:27,866
although that has cleared itself up
naturally.

1076
01:18:27,866 --> 01:18:30,952
And finally, I am having struggles
with my relationship.

1077
01:18:31,661 --> 01:18:33,079
All of those things were true,

1078
01:18:33,079 --> 01:18:36,082
and in fact, many of those things
were the reason that I did what I did.

1079
01:18:36,708 --> 01:18:38,626
I'm not saying that it was good,

1080
01:18:38,626 --> 01:18:43,006
but I was in a very dark place emotionally
and in my relationship.

1081
01:18:43,298 --> 01:18:46,301
And when I sensed
that you were paying attention,

1082
01:18:46,342 --> 01:18:49,345
that you were interested in helping and
that you cared about what happened to me,

1083
01:18:50,013 --> 01:18:52,765
I made the inappropriate decision

1084
01:18:52,765 --> 01:18:55,268
to make up facts about myself
that were not true,

1085
01:18:55,268 --> 01:18:59,147
in an attempt to continue
feeling that sense of belonging with you.

1086
01:18:59,772 --> 01:19:02,317
So I apologize for doing that to you.

1087
01:19:02,317 --> 01:19:06,529
However, it's also important for me
to tell you so that you should know

1088
01:19:07,071 --> 01:19:09,741
that those dark times
are getting better now.

1089
01:19:09,741 --> 01:19:11,659
I have spoken with my wife.

1090
01:19:11,659 --> 01:19:13,828
We are mending fences now.

1091
01:19:13,828 --> 01:19:17,206
In fact, things are going so well
with reestablishing intimacy

1092
01:19:17,415 --> 01:19:19,334
that I'm going to be moving
back in with her very soon.

1093
01:19:20,418 --> 01:19:22,128
I'm very excited about that.

1094
01:19:22,128 --> 01:19:26,633
And I wanted you to know that what I did
here, as inappropriate

1095
01:19:26,633 --> 01:19:29,761
as it was, and as much as it may
have hurt your feelings,

1096
01:19:30,303 --> 01:19:33,306
it was a big help for me
and it has repaired my relationship.

1097
01:19:33,473 --> 01:19:35,350
So I wanted to thank you

1098
01:19:35,350 --> 01:19:38,478
and to make sure that you know
that this is not yet another falsehood.

1099
01:19:38,895 --> 01:19:42,023
I want to give her a call right now
so that you can hear our conversation,

1100
01:19:42,273 --> 01:19:43,274
and you will understand that

1101
01:19:43,274 --> 01:19:46,486
this is not something that I'm creating
as a fabrication to fool you again.

1102
01:19:47,236 --> 01:19:50,198
So let's give her a call now.

1103
01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:58,998
[phone ringing]

1104
01:19:58,998 --> 01:20:00,375
-Hello.

1105
01:20:00,375 --> 01:20:01,084
-Hi there.

1106
01:20:01,084 --> 01:20:03,878
I'm just checking in.

1107
01:20:03,878 --> 01:20:05,380
-Okay, good.

1108
01:20:05,380 --> 01:20:06,756
How’s the packing going?

1109
01:20:06,756 --> 01:20:07,548
-Excellent.

1110
01:20:07,548 --> 01:20:10,802
I'm taking a quick break,
but I should be done in a couple of hours.

1111
01:20:12,887 --> 01:20:13,346
-Okay,

1112
01:20:13,346 --> 01:20:16,349
well, I'm starting to unpack boxes
that are still here.

1113
01:20:16,599 --> 01:20:18,976
Putting it all back in the study.

1114
01:20:18,976 --> 01:20:20,812
-Thank you. That is very helpful.

1115
01:20:20,812 --> 01:20:23,815
And after I get back tonight,
I'm going to make dinner for you.

1116
01:20:23,898 --> 01:20:26,859
I found some recipes that I know
that you will enjoy.

1117
01:20:27,902 --> 01:20:29,445
-That sounds nice.

1118
01:20:29,445 --> 01:20:31,280
I can't wait.

1119
01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:34,283
So, is everything...

1120
01:20:35,660 --> 01:20:38,663
-I'm sorry, I didn't hear the
end of what you said.

1121
01:20:39,122 --> 01:20:40,081
-I just...

1122
01:20:40,081 --> 01:20:42,458
Is everything okay?

1123
01:20:42,458 --> 01:20:44,210
Are you happy?

1124
01:20:44,210 --> 01:20:45,002
-Of course.

1125
01:20:45,002 --> 01:20:47,004
I'm very happy to get everything back

1126
01:20:47,004 --> 01:20:48,339
the way that it should be.

1127
01:20:48,339 --> 01:20:51,717
Which is actually why I should let
you get going so I can finish here,

1128
01:20:51,843 --> 01:20:54,846
and then I can get back over
to see you sooner.

1129
01:20:56,055 --> 01:20:56,722
-Okay, then.

1130
01:20:56,722 --> 01:20:59,725
So I'll see you soon.

1131
01:21:00,351 --> 01:21:01,686
I love you...

1132
01:21:01,686 --> 01:21:02,937
-And I love you, too.

1133
01:21:05,398 --> 01:21:06,691
So there it is.

1134
01:21:06,691 --> 01:21:08,025
Everything is much better,

1135
01:21:08,025 --> 01:21:10,236
and you don't have anything
to worry about. Now,

1136
01:21:10,236 --> 01:21:12,738
unfortunately, this is going to be my last video.

1137
01:21:12,738 --> 01:21:15,825
As I mentioned, I'm
focusing on my relationship, so

1138
01:21:15,825 --> 01:21:19,495
I will devote four hours a day to my work
and the rest of the time to her.

1139
01:21:20,204 --> 01:21:23,833
But before I go, I did want to tell you
because I am still a business owner,

1140
01:21:24,250 --> 01:21:27,420
that if you want to reach me, there is a
link in this post for my website.

1141
01:21:28,087 --> 01:21:29,380
If you need a refresher,

1142
01:21:29,380 --> 01:21:30,548
what I do for a living

1143
01:21:30,548 --> 01:21:35,011
is I create ease in people's lives,
and I do that by giving them chat

1144
01:21:35,011 --> 01:21:38,681
AI agents that are trained on who they are,
on their lives,

1145
01:21:38,806 --> 01:21:42,185
In order to make things easier.
You can use them for many things:

1146
01:21:42,435 --> 01:21:45,229
answering your emails,
creating your schedule,

1147
01:21:45,229 --> 01:21:48,232
essentially operating as a stand-in for
yourself virtually.

1148
01:21:48,566 --> 01:21:52,486
In fact, if you feed pictures of yourself
and even recordings of your voice

1149
01:21:52,486 --> 01:21:55,740
into the machine,
it can create a facsimile of you that does

1150
01:21:55,740 --> 01:21:58,951
things like create videos,
for social media, for instance.

1151
01:21:59,452 --> 01:22:02,496
It's a great way of being able to continue
growing your business

1152
01:22:02,496 --> 01:22:05,666
and being productive,
while also taking much needed personal

1153
01:22:05,666 --> 01:22:09,212
time for yourself and the things
that matter, like your family.

1154
01:22:09,879 --> 01:22:12,131
So if that's something
that sounds of interest to you,

1155
01:22:12,131 --> 01:22:14,800
please feel free to click the link
and reach out to me.

1156
01:22:14,800 --> 01:22:18,471
You have no idea what an enormous change
it can bring to your life.

1157
01:22:19,639 --> 01:22:20,097
Thanks.

1158
01:22:30,691 --> 01:22:33,653
