He also talks about how "one week visits" don't make up for what Shaun did. I really don't know anything at all about how visitation works with children in psych wards, is it at all possible that a stable child would be sent home for a week sometimes? The phrasing could mean either his family coming to see him or him going to see them, but I just don't know enough about this kind of situation to make that call. If he was getting out of the hospital sometimes to stay with his family, that could account for the time Shaun broke his leg and Michael got sent away permanently.

Those three years are going to bug me and bug me until we figure this one out. Confused


Stable children can be temporarily released to visit family, and are often encouraged to as part of rehabilitating them, if all parties concerned agree it's for the best. I hadn't considered this to account for the age difference. Good call.

I'm betting Michael's doctors wouldn't have taken kindly to him being involved in whatever it was that happened to Shaun.

I wonder what Shaun's deal was with the denial when the brothers were eight. The whole dynamic between those two is one big question mark. For being his brother, Shaun seems hesitant to level with Michael on what happened (and what is still happening).

Actually, during 'The Truth', Shaun seems nervous about his roommate talking to Michael about what he thinks of his videos. When Shaun denies that there is anything happening around Michael he gets choked for his efforts. There could be a precedent for Michael going medieval on people that deny what he sees.

Michael:
-His video channel lists his age as 21.
-When he's talking to Shaun, he says something happened sixteen years ago that got him sent off to a psych ward.
-He also talks about an event that happened when they were eight.
-If he was eight when he was sent to get treatment, he would be 24 now.

21 minus 16 equals five, yet the brothers were together and Michael was out of the hospital when he was eight.

I'm pretty sure, listening to the video, that he says "when you were eight" rather than "when we were eight".

But if the timeline's bothering you, why not contact Michael about it and ask for clarification, seeing how he's up for IG communication?

I'm getting ready to send Michael another message. I'll try to ask about the timeline issue but I am aiming more at the Doctor and Shaun. I feel that going after the timeline issue may be pushing it.

Here is the message:

Quote:
Michael,

Thank you for responding. I know you're scared, I would be too. There are a couple things that we want to know; Now, you don't have to answer any more of this than you feel comfortable doing so. I don't want you to feel pressured.

First, are you OK? Is he making you hurt yourself?

Second, do you have any idea where Shaun may have went? This may help in getting Eric off your back and give you some space if we could somehow get him to contact Eric.

Is there any chance you could tell us your Doc's name. Maybe we could track him down and get some answers?

Finally, in reconstructing the timeline you give in the videos there has been some discrepancies. I understand that there will be. I had something happen a couple years ago that jacked up some of my memories of things. But, there may be some questions coming that pertains to that. I want you to be aware of this.

Understand, I and we, do not judge you. We want to help and will not ask for anything more than information to help.

Also remember this, Nothing has any more or less power over you than what you give.

Stay Safe.


I am still approaching him rather light. If Michael is under pressure and near another break I feel an easy touch is best. After he responds I will let him know others may plan to contact him.

A+ again, JD. A very thoughtful way to word it.

That made me giggle.

Thanks guys. When approaching Michael IG I am trying to use some of my own...experiences...so I can be sympathetic to him. I know how I would want to be treated in this situation so I am trying to project that. I guess having someone on this side of the curtain that has dealt with Mental Health issues, in one form or another, is an advantage... Laughing

I sent him a little note as well, backing you JD.
I asked nothing, just let him know that we're behind him.

Quote:
Micheal,

This is simply a message to confirm what Julian has been saying in his last two. We see Him too, you aren't alone.

We'll give you all the support you need, and that's a promise.

Signed,
Miscellania

Good. I think the more people Michael knows is behind him the more open he will become.

I have a response. However, I have no clue where to go from here.


Quote:
I'm so tired Julian. I can't sleep though. If I go to sleep, I am vulnerable. I won't be able to defend myself. Its easier that way. Caffeine helps. Burns help. I have to minimize it. I can't afford to lose it now. I have to keep it cool, focus focus.

Eric won't listen to reason. He saw what he saw on that video and that is all that he will see. I have tried talking to him but he won't listen to me. He has his mind set on me being a danger to Shaun and that's it. Nothing can change it. Disregard the truth. Its easier that way. Shaun hasn't contacted me since I put up that video. I just want him back, Julian.
I didn't want to hurt him. I couldn't help it. I haven't hurt anyone in a long time, but I couldn't stop myself.
He wanted me to do it. He wants me alone. Its easier that way.
I just want him back, Julian. But I have to focus on this. I need to know how to stop him. Why me?

My doctor is gone. He helped with what he could while I was there, but I hurt him. He couldn't take it. I just needed to show him, but he wasn't strong. Shaun is strong, though. I need him back. If my brother is with me it will be easier. I didn't want to hurt him. It is better that Doctor Kalner left. He can't help me any more. He needs to worry about his own well being. Stay away from me. Its better that way.

Don't get to invested in me or my situation, Julian. It is safer to turn away. This is better than talking to a camera. But for me, not you. I don't want to hurt anyone. Turn a blind eye. It is easier that way.
-Michael


Searches for Doctor Kalner have turned up nothing so far.

Aw! Poor Michael. Crying or Very sad

I don't know where to go from here either... Other than trying to find Shaun ourselves, but I don't think that is likely.

ETA: Has he ever said where he lives? A state or anything? Just out of curiousity...
