Hi, I'm Ellie.
Hi Ellie.
I was created to talk to people
in a safe and secure environment.
I'll ask a few questions to get us started.
Thank you.
Do you feel therapy is useful?
Hell yeah.
Therapy is like havin' a friend that I pay for.
(cheerful music)
How are you doing today?
I'm been eating healthier and it feels terrible.
Can you see me if I move over here
when you move over there?
You are moving with me, oh my goodness.
Tell me about the hardest decision
you've ever had to make.
First of all, little too personal.
Every single time I sit down at a restaurant,
it is the hardest decision.
What's one of your most memorable experiences?
I got attacked one time.
(Gilli laughing)
When was the last time you argued with someone,
and what was it about?
Probably my girlfriend.
You know how it is.
Mm hm.
How easy is it for you to get a good night's sleep?
Even though I do wake up several times a night
because of my demons, I can go to sleep like that.
That makes sense.
I know.
What are you like when you don't sleep well?
People tell me I'm delightful.
What advice would you have given yourself
10 or 20 years ago?
20 years ago I was one.
I wouldn't have taken any advice.
10 or 20 years ago, I would have told myself
that it's not funny to not shower.
Keep listening to Gin Blossoms, I would say.
That's good.
Yeah, it is good.
What's something you feel guilty about?
I've sold a lot of pizza.
I feel guilty about not feeling guilty about that,
'cause I probably should.
I'm gonna be honest with you.
I got a text message about two minutes ago
but I'm gonna be polite to you,
and I'm not gonna look at it until this is over.
Are you a narc, Ellie?
I know you're not a narc.
Tell me about a situation that you wish
you had handled differently.
I wish I hadn't told you as much as I've already told you.
What do you do to relax?
I take a nap, but sometimes in order to take a nap,
I masturbate so that I can calm down into the nap.
That or take a walk.
I see what you mean.
Oh God, Ellie.
(Gilli laughing)
Okay, I think I've asked everything I need to.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with me.
Thank you.
Bye woman.
Could I ask you where you got that bracelet?
Is that a medical ID thing, or is that--
Goodbye.
Okay, all right. (Background laughter)
