[00:02:05]Actually, like maybe we can um meet next to the river if you're all right with it. Yeah.

[00:02:13]>> Yeah. All right.

[00:02:14]>> Okay. Um thank you.

[00:02:32]Okay. So, I feel really bad what happened in our relationship.

[00:02:44]You know, >> I wouldn't have broken with you if I know you wouldn't worry so much. I mean, I understand that worrying about a loved one is normal, but honestly, I was starting to feel for you, not for myself.

[00:03:00]>> You know, I worked up with psychologist and he told me that I was like totally fine. I mean, I just I just had so much baggage on me like school, like friends, family problems and I just couldn't handle it all.

[00:03:14]You were losing your mind over some makeup. And here's your partner is literally dying right before your eyes.

[00:03:23]>> I'm really fine right now. You know, >> I I can handle the cancer.

[00:03:33]I mean, I mean, maybe I hate like everything. I can hold on right now, you know? I can I can I can I really need to Oh, so Cedric, right? You're a Hazel boyfriend if I understand correctly.

[00:05:41]>> Kind of.

[00:05:42]>> Kind of.

[00:05:44]>> I have a general idea of what you're about to talk. So, let me know. Are you and Hazel still together or did you came to me just for help? Uh, and what uh the current situation of your relationship?

[00:06:00]>> Um, well, we broke up about three or four months ago.

[00:06:08]>> [sighs] >> But we have meet recently about a week ago and um it was awful.

[00:06:17]We were just uh sitting there talking about our relationship [snorts] and I started to talk about everything we had but for some reason the only thing spinning in her head was that I'm sick.

[00:06:32]She just started panicking going up to people asking for our phone. And yes, we have had like this incidents before.

[00:06:47]Maybe it's because your situation now is much more difficult than it was.

[00:06:52]>> Hi guys, we are moving to a new apartment very soon.

[00:06:55]>> Yeah, we will invite you there.

[00:07:08]In the past, those were just a regular fights where she understood that you might break up with her.

[00:07:15]>> But now she realizes that you want just a breakup. Uh she might never see you again.

[00:07:23]Imagine yourself on here on her place how it likes to be.

[00:07:32]I understand what it's like to lost many people in the situation like this who was normal anxiety is absolutely different thing >> compared to what she's doing. Yes.

[00:07:45]>> Yeah.

[00:07:46]>> Mhm.

[00:07:47]>> All right. You have come to this conclusion by yourself. Then tell me what do you think that uh she is not that normal anxious people like uh any partner in a relationship?

[00:08:05]>> Well, she start stressing over things that never happened and uh it probably never will happen. Do you know why almost none of Hazel paintings are ever preserved? Because for some reason if something doesn't work out instead of fixing it she throws it away throws it up a hat seeing no other option how to fix it.

[00:08:34]I don't understand really the whole situation but I wanted to ask her friend May to text Hazel. Maybe she called visit you again because you really saved our relationship last time.

[00:08:54]You know, I hope I can help her too, but I think it's suspicious that she might be uh mentally ill.

[00:09:14]What do you mean e?

[00:09:16]>> You see, last time Hazel uh tried coming to see me, she had these uh very strange quirks everywhere. It was when she was worried about something, but at the same time, she had already resigned herself to what was going to happen.

[00:09:34]And I have one theory but I need to make sure about this before making any conclusions.

[00:09:44]Is there any way how I can help her?

[00:09:47]>> You know help yourself first and then I will handle this situation here.

[00:09:56]>> Thank you.

[00:09:56]>> Okay. You're welcome.

[00:10:25]Hi, listen.

[00:10:27]>> I want to talk to you, but now I'm a little bit busy. And S just called me and br me. And guys, I don't know what happened between you two, but I think he just want to explain that uh maybe you need to meet Dr. him again. And also Sed said that he want to let you know that he still wants to talk to you and just for now and uh it will be better for you to see a specialist maybe. So let him know that you decide in the end.

[00:11:08]Um okay. Yeah, I think it's like a good idea. So, okay. Bye.

[00:12:28]Awesome.

[00:13:23]Hey, so do you want to talk about what happened.

[00:13:28]>> Cuz it was just breath. I would just try to see when the pain would come. I do feel right.

[00:13:53]>> [music] [music]
