The truth does nearly put you in the hospital. The initial shock you get over, it's the ongoing nightmare of living around those who can't/won't believe you. They might suspect you are right and then shun you to maintain their illusion. Not surprising because it feels like falling off a cliff to "real-ize" the shocking truth. It is a dark epiphany that repeats and gets worse.

No wonder "the choice, to KNOW, is yours"
