The mention of electric shock therapy piqued his interest. “What exactly is electric shock therapy like?” he asked tentatively.

Alice frowned, then said, “Do you know why personalities exist?”

“Why? Isn’t it because the main personality creates it?”

Alice nodded, then said, “Then do you know why it’s so much easier to create a personality than to destroy it?”

“I don’t know.”

“Because, in fact, personalities are almost indistinguishable from each other except for primary and secondary. Each personality can be seen as an independent entity. Then, since they are no different from ordinary people, and normal people are not willing to die, why would personalities be willing to be easily destroyed? Once they exist, once they are created, they will be no different from an ordinary person. They will have emotions and desires, independent thoughts and selfishness, even ambition. Then, gradually, these personalities will want to occupy the primary position, and thus cause great mental pressure. When Youyou’s primary personality collapsed, it was because of the intense conflict between the two personalities. That’s why…”

“That’s why…” Gong Jie was starting to put some pieces of the puzzle together. “That’s why such a huge mental load was created.”

“That’s right.”

Now the man was getting somewhere. He had never understood the condition of multiple personalities. But after listening to Alice’s explanation, he gradually understood it more.

“But do you know why some people choose suicide?”

“Normal folks you mean?”

“Uh huh.”

“Because of the pain.” Alice’s tone was suddenly heavy. “Because there is such a thing as indelible pain, both mental and physical. It’s excruciating.”

......

Gong Jie suddenly understood.

“The electric shock therapy is to make these personalities experience the pain of being born human, so that they choose destruction?”

“Yes, bingo.” Alice snapped her fingers and said with amazement, “You look like you have potential!”

“I don’t want to have such cruel potential!” The man understood. The use of electric shock therapy causes each personality to experience the pain of being born human. In this way, these personalities will begin to tire of the feeling of occupying a human body, and eventually choose to go to the ‘land of the dead’ on their own.

“However, the primary personality will suffer the same terrible agony.” Alice looked at him intently as she continued, “Although the primary personality is equally burdened with this pain, however painful, it is not fatal. And you know that the primary personality will never be destroyed. Only the other personalities can be destroyed.”

Gong Jie felt a sudden bone-chilling sensation.

“What made people come up with such a cruel remedy?”

“Because they are at their wits’ end!” Alice sighed again. “That’s why there are so many uncharted territories in this world. The only people who really understand the world of schizophrenia and multiple personalities are probably themselves. The vast majority of the information in this area, and the amazing amount of modern medical knowledge, comes from the oral accounts of these patients. There’s no way for us to tell if what they’re saying is true or fiction. Their world, everything about it, is strange and unknown to us.” After a long silence, Alice sighed and said earnestly, “I had even thought of the possibility of creating a second personality myself, just so that I can more effectively treat Youyou.”
