She writes, I am an extremely controlled emotionally absent human being with an overactive nervous system.

0:18.0

I developed a habit of finding strangers on the internet to have sex with which would send me into a dissociative

0:25.1

state where I no longer had to feel anything.

0:29.2

0:35.6
