"I am so utterly everything. I am so utterly nothing."

"I felt like I was a ghost, haunting my own life."

"If I didn't have any sex organs, I wouldn't waver on the brink of nervous emotions and tears all the time."

"I felt like I was a stranger in my own life."

"I am afraid. I am not solid, but hollow. I feel behind my eyes a numb, paralysed cavern, a pit of hell, a mimicking nothingness."
