And when I got up this m\u2013\u00a0I couldn\u2019t sleep last night, although I took some medication (unintelligible). And uh, after three hours of sleep I just got up and just\u2013 yeah, I\u2013 I couldn\u2019t stand being around the relatives. Nobody I\u2013\u00a0Nobody (unintelligible) incredible freak, and I had to get down here to settle my job, but\u2013\u00a0and I got on the bus, and I got into an even f\u2013 even more (unintelligible word) freakier place, which is a dead end, dead end place, and I started\u2013 I started contemplating seriously about how I could get out of this\u2013 just get <em>out<\/em> of this\u2013 and I know it\u2019s the most selfish thing in the <em>world<\/em>, but it was just like, how to get out of this, (unintelligible) and (sighs) I\u2019ve\u2013 I\u2019ve been thinking of those sleeping pills, and I starting noticing all these mortuaries along the way, and I just got\u2013 it got worse and worse and worse and worse, and I couldn\u2019t\u2013\u00a0I couldn\u2019t rest, I couldn\u2019t sleep, I couldn\u2019t do anything in my mind, I started going on a death trip, just miles a minutes. And\u2013 (Pause) I\u2019ve gone on them mildly before, and yesterday, I was in a really bleak suicidal place, and I went to\u2013 thoughts of suicide kept coming up again and again and again, but today, it was just desperate. Like the only thing that I could consider or conceive, because there\u2019s no hope. And I think that\u2019s blasphemy, (short laugh) but that\u2019s emotionally how (unintelligible word)\u2013 how I was feeling.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Karen Layton:<\/strong> What is your feeling about the <em>church<\/em> now?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Garry:<\/strong> My feeling about the church is very positive, only it might\u2013 my fear is that I can\u2019t make it, that it\u2019s just as impossible staying out here, and then I\u2019m caught in (unintelligible word) is part of the problem is caught in a dead end trap, where I couldn\u2019t make it and I couldn\u2019t break my habits.
