Diagnosed Chaos
This is my account of my most recent hospitalization. Most people think that mental rehabilitation facilities are just vacation spots. Well, they are dead wrong. Psychiatric hospitals are very tense environments, and I decided that I'd like to share my full experience with everyone. It was one of my worst stays, and I think sharing my experience will help others to understand what people who struggle with mental illness go through. I will change names for privacy, but everything else you read in this story is true. I hope you enjoy!Complete
The Catharsis
When most people say they want to 'get away from it all', they mean they want to go to a tropical island, or hike up into the woods. But let's say that isn't enough for you. You want to get as far as possible from this place we call 'The Earth'. This is exactly what 35 people decided that they would do, when they heard of The Catharsis. A luxury cruise to the moon, delivered via spaceship. But these things seldom go to plan, and the past has a way of catching up. This is a tale about people from all different walks of life. They will all be there, aboard The Catharsis. Learn about everything they have experienced, and all that they will experience.Complete

Not Her
Elias lost the love of his life, and with her, any reason to go on. Drowning in grief, he does the unthinkable-he brings her back. Or at least, he tries, using artificial intelligence. Naomi-bot is perfect. She speaks like Naomi, remembers like Naomi, even cares like Naomi. But she isn't Naomi. Not really. And the more time Elias spends with her, the more cracks begin to show-both in her and in himself. As his obsession deepens, his world warps into something surreal and unrecognizable. He stops sleeping. Stops eating. Starts seeing things. Because if Naomi-bot isn't Naomi... then who is she? And worse-if she's someone else, then what has he done?Complete
