TW: depictions of self harm and suicidal thoughts

I'm looking for critiques on a dark vignette , I want to improve the emotional wieght of the peice and want to figure put how to go about that. I wrote this entire piece based on the last line of the story, I had an ending and I got there in a way that I'm very proud of. I have a few questions, nothing big.

[Google document]

  • Is it a strong story?
  • Does it evoke emotions?
  • Did it change how you interpret the specific mental illnesses described in this story?
  • Did I pace out the hysteria enough and build it at a proper tempo such that you didn't get sick of the obsessive thoughts?
  • How does this piece stand out?
  • What doesn't work?
  • Is there a way to emphasize the really stand out thoughts that would add more emotional impact?
  • How do you feel after reading it?
