Once in a while you come across a fic that punches you right in the gut (in the best way possible) and you can't stop thinking about it. That fic is Major Ego Death (Eater) by Winterwells. I had to ask her to come on and chat about it with me. We get into a host of other topics, including her journey with hospitalization and mental health. This episode peels back the layers of what it's like to actually live through a psychotic break and then transfer that experience into art. We laugh a lot and there's possibly some Simlish involved.
