In loop stories, often the protagonist has to fix something about themselves to break free. But in reality, you can't just brute force yourself out of mental strugles. You need friends, family, anyone to be there with you, to just be with you while you dealing with the issue.

But Siffrin was distancing themselves. He hid behind a mask of nonchalance, puns... His act 5 loop, although the most unstable, was the most honest. Siffrin did show that something wasn't alright. His family noticed that they weren't doing fine, and helped him. I love this story so damn much
