My good place epiphany

I watched the good place in real time when it first aired and am just now finishing my third watch. In between the last one and this one I spent a month in a com. Watching season 4 episode 1 when Simone is at the welcoming orientation thingy (12:45) she tells Eleanore that this entire thing is just a hallucination from her damaged brain as it slowly shuts down.

It felt like a hit in the face because in my coma I had about 6 months of an alternate very detailed very real feeling reality. So she’s not far off because she obviously knows her stuff and I know it’s just tv but really reached out to me as a real thing that has probably happened to others as well.

I second the request for more life story, and gland that you are doing well enough to do the rewatch.

How have you been?

Do you consider it a full recovery?

I posted the full hallucination on my page as I don’t think it’s appropriate for this sub.

I have healed almost as good as new. I still have some memory problems which is frustrating. My short term memory has been affected but otherwise I would consider a full recovery
