Quick question, since so many people have said sungkyung has schizophrenia, how come it wasn’t as severe in the beginning of the story? Is it because as he said he was writing everything down or does trauma influence things. I have no clue how schizophrenia works so I’m lost

    Honestly I'm curious too cause I'm just assuming he has some kind of schizophrenia or another illness near it

    all mental illnesses are made worse by stress, generally... grief+trauma are absolutely types of stress. also w schizophrenia, sometimes it doesn't even manifest until ppl are in their 20s, often triggered by stress/trauma/grief/etc. journaling is a great way to relieve stress, process trauma, + keep memories straight so now that his one healthy(ish) coping mechanism is gone, im sure thats not helping!!

    I think people are forgetting that he’s on drugs. Like hello? People? They literally did a bag of that shit, drugs makes you hallucinate depending on the kind and how much you do
