Right. I hope Chris doesn't plan on telling the police or the threapist about this reality stone nonsense, or how he believes in alternate dimensions/how he's married to two OCs he created, they may end up sending him to the Looney bin. But if this does happen, hopefully he gets the psychological help he needs.

To be fair, Chris just made $1200 and a boyfriend-free girl just appear out of nowhere, so lets not rule this whole "reality stone" thing out yet.

He probably raised most of it through his business. Like, in April, he had revenue of $4,284 + however much @The Captain paid for the ring, and I don't know how aware Barb is of his business income.

On the other hand, Chris had been having trouble scrounging up the money for the mortgage... the receipts Null posted shows Chris sending gift cards around mid-April, and Barb had appeared in begging videos in early April and early May asking for help to pay the mortgage. So he might've told Barb something to explain why they were short on money... but she probably would've found it incomprehensible and assumed he spent it on video games or something.

There is no mortgage payment. It’s a reverse mortgage. That means Barb is GETTING MONEY FROM THE BANK every month but lying to Chris about impending foreclosure to take his tugboat. The bank takes the house when she dies. Chris is then fucked. Barb don’t care. Bitch.

@Null corrected that in another post somewhere. Barb took out a second mortgage worth more than $100k on the house. The net effect at the end will be the same — When Barb dies, the Chandlers won’t have nearly enough equity in the home to make it viable to try and keep 14 BC. But there should a legitimate mortgage payment that Barb has to make each month. I wouldn’t rule out Barb lying to him about the amount of the payment due to get more of Chris’s tugboat though.

When Barb dies, Chris will hold a nuclear beg-a-thon, raise enough money from people stupider than him to pay off all the mortgages outright, and all his A-Logs will drop dead out of sheer impotent rage.

I'm betting on one of his many fans to take Chris in. I don't think these people will let Chris be homeless or let him be taken to a home.

I don’t know about that. It’s one thing to give Chris virtual asspats, or even some money once in a while in exchange for something he pulled out of the hoard; it’s quite another to have Chris as the houseguest who never goes away.

And then, once he doxxes himself (and you know it’s going to eventually happen), that means there are going to be hordes of weenies and fans contacting the residence and/or showing up announced.

No, thank you.

Yeah exactly. Not mention, Once Chris feels comfortable in a place, he REALLY gets comfortable. Just look what he does in gaming stores and fast food joints. Spreads all his shit out, goes into areas he's not allowed, starts hanging up his "art".

@Null is this in response to your advice, or has somebody else been advising him to go to therapy? Will this impact your plan?

To be fair to whoever suggested it, we have a completely different lolcow (Amberlynn Reid) who doesn't seem unusually mentally impaired, just standard-issue uneducated and dense, who insists that because she saw a dentist when she was 17, she needs no further checkups ever. Meanwhile, her two front incisors have shifted an entire space over, so that instead of lining up with her nose and chin like everyone else's, they line up with one eye... so I mean, it's similarly a problem obvious to everyone but the cow, and similarly no one can force her to have it treated.

On the psychiatrist/therapist topic, in the UK you can nominate someone to be an advocate for you during your care. Usually its useful for people who have conditions that have episodes of illness that decrease their capacity to make decisions. I don't know if the US has similar, but if Chris was to give Null permission to be in contact with her therapist then that means confidentiality wouldn't be an issue. It is all up to Chris, but she seems to trust Null so I hope it will work out. I agree with others that say it's best to not rely on Chris to tell them everything, but also having someone like Null who was involved in not only this event, but knowledge of her past too, would be helpful to give context to this whole situation.

The problem with Advocacy (at least for the most part concerning mental health or learning disorders) is that the advocate can only speak on the patient/client's behalf rather than make their own judgement during appointments or requesting/demanding any particular course of action or treatment without being directed by the client themselves.

Chris would have to consult with an advocate or write what he would like the advocate to say on his behalf, likely useless really - since it would make next to no sense without the context of Christory and his intricately built fantasy world jargon.

Null is better than an advocate really, since he's able to offer some gentle and sensible guidance to Chris - the difference being that Null lacks the professional capacity that advocates and the like have to get professionals in appropriate fields to take him seriously based on his observations or what he has to say.

Advocacy is great for those competent enough to know what they want from services but are unable to speak for themselves (e.g. anxiety/non-verbal but competent...), not so great for those who are delusional and don't know what to ask for or what will actually help (e.g. psychotic/low functioning autistic folk/schizophrenics...). It's quite limited, sadly.

It would take a therapist a lot of time and care to pick through and recognise CWC's delusions and break patterns and behaviours in a healthy way. It would help for them to research his history on the internet but I doubt many would have the patience or the interest in really digging into his psyche and helping him to improve and make some progress.

Good luck, Null - you at least seem to be doing some decent damage control, although it seems a little like shovelling snow while it's still snowing, I commend you for stepping in and sticking to your guns with trying to help.

So he thinks the Amnyfest Ring is a fragment of an Infinity Stone now?

Points for creativity, at least...
