** Communicate with your partner and be open about what's troubling you. Keeping secrets will only strain your relationship with your partner, and it can create misunderstandings that may lead to unwanted outcomes.
** Even in a hopeless place, build bonds with others (romantic or platonic). Those bonds will give you something worth fighting for and the impact they leave on others will be felt long after you're gone.
** There's no shame in knowing your limits. Pushing yourself beyond what you can handle may cause you to alienate yourself from others, and it will only lead you on a path to self-destruction.
** Just because you are legitimately special and better than others doesn’t make you invincible. Everyone has limits and even though yours are higher you still have them.
** When it comes to dealing with personal tragedy, abusing substances or cybernetics is not the answer. Reach out to those closest to you and take the time to debrief the moments that traumatize you with them.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Fittingly for the setting, chroming is treated similarly to a drug addiction. You start off small, but eventually feel the need to keep adding more and more, even as your body can tolerate it less and less. And it'll eventually destroy your mind. And not helping things is David's insistence that he's different from everyone else, that he can handle it (rather similar to what a "functional" addict might say). [[spoiler:And while David indeed does have a higher than normal tolerance for augmentation, "tolerance" is the key word; eventually his heavy modding of his body catches up to him and he begins to go cyberpyscho like everyone else.]] For his part, Mike Pondsmith (the creator of the setting) has compared Cyberpsychosis to roid rage.
