You know what the real nightmare scenario is there? You're locked in the head, sort of half screaming because you don't have to be doing all that shit anymore... and they start succeeding. They put a little effort in at work, they get promoted. They focus on a single hobby (or two!), and get good enough at it that others ask them to start a club and teach about it, just once a month or so, but the friends they make want to hang out more often. They smile at the person across the bus row, and a conversation starts, and suddenly there's a date planned for friday night. They reach out to your parents, and your parents not only respond well, but admit they were conned by conservatives and want to reconcile.
No troubles... no difficulties. They slide in and simply become the better you that you couldn't.
How is that a nightmare scenario? Good on them for succeeding where I failed/didn't try. And now I get to come along for the ride and see what it's like to not waste my life. I never should've been put in charge of this meat husk to start with.
And then they release you… after which it all goes down hill again.
Not if for all of those months you were at the prime seat to observe what "is" being this awesome person than you can be and learned from it.
I think it would be the very best option: you get a free, extensive course of "life as a person" and then get another chance to apply all that for the rest of your life.
Footprints in sand baby, you got this!
