conversations.value: *Act on your impulse. Swallow the bottle. Cut a little deeper. Hold the gun to your chest* - Ellen Hopkins
  
  We all have our dark moments. But when you act on them, you end up here.
  
  Welcome to Aspen Falls, a psychiatric facility off of the main Nevada interstate. People rarely take a glance at this place. It blends in. The people inside fade in and out of America's memory. After all, those within are crazy.
  
  Maybe you cut yourself a little too deep. Maybe the needle you shoved into your vein showed you too much love. Maybe the one who loved you left you to yourself.
  
  Well, you're here now.

conversations.from: human

conversations.from: human
conversations.value: Find Your Voice: After "the incident," you haven't quite been the same. You didn't speak a word for a month, and when you finally went to break the streak, your voice betrayed you. Speaking is a luxury that you don't yet deserve.
