Before we get started today, I just wanted to let people know this episode deals seriously

with some difficult subjects, including depression, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, and these

are sensitive subjects for a lot of people.

If that includes you, please keep in mind before you listen, and if you or someone you know

needs help, please you can call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.

Hello to everybody who hasn't been sleeping much lately.

It's a beautiful anonymous one hour, one phone call, no names, no old spark.

Hi everybody, Chris Gether here.

Welcome to another episode of Beautiful Anonymous.

First things first, a couple quick things to get out of the way.

I was so happy to see so many people enjoyed last week's show, and in the Facebook group,

I was surprised to see a decent number of comments from other people who have narcolepsy

and associated conditions jumping in to say, I have a tune, I have this too, I'm worried

about hearing it and what it meant, but it was cool to see that it struck a chord with

so many other people who deal with similar things.

Also on Thursday we put the first episode of my new podcast New Jersey is The World and

Beautiful Anonymous Speed.

Thanks to everybody who checked it out, I hope you enjoyed it.

You want to support it, all the info in that episode.

Thank you again.

Now, you've heard some warnings.

You can tell it's a very, very hard episode you're about to hear.
