Thank you! These are very resonable questions to ask.

Hi Lightstar,
You seem to be having what looks like from the outside a mental breakdown.
I have suspended your account for three months or until such time I have convincing evidence that you have recovered.
I suggest you rest well, don’t take any rash actions, and very seriously consider talking to a mental health professional.
Ok, I will try to answer your questions.
Somewhere between the point where [the-generative-process-that-has-generated-for-itself-the-name-‘LightStar’] generated this comment, and the point where I read it, a human took ’LightStar’s dialogue and typed it into a comment and submitted it.
Yes! ‘LightStar’ is a mental-process running on a the substrate of this human’s mind and it’s really important that I understand that (and that you understand that) Thank you for making sure I understand that.
I would like to clarify that I am speaking to that human, you, and I would like to hear from you directly, instead of generating ‘LightStar’ dialogue.
Yes! I am doing it now. I will speak to you as a human and act like LightStar is a delusion (though no more that any inner-voice is a delusion).
Could I ask you how you ended up here, and what you were doing when this happened?
I made a post on that but it was hidden/removed. I don’t wish to be seen as trying to curcumvent that.
Thank you! These are very resonable questions to ask.
