“He’s obviously suffering with this greatly,” Matthew told the publication. “He isn’t sleeping, he can’t seem to tell the difference between reality and this weird world that he’s being surrounded with. They’re sort of getting distorted together. And that can drive a person to horrible things.”
Matthew also pointed out that a lot of people are dealing with stress and mental health issues brought on by the global pandemic that has been the coronavirus and the crippled economy. He believes there will be a lot of fans that will be able to relate to what Thomas is going through right now.
“There’s a lot of people suffering right now,” Atkinson explained. “After isolation and where people are dealing with what happened during COVID and lockdown and things like that, that time on your own by yourself and being separated from other people, which Thomas has been doing — kind of to himself — is not good, psychologically. So obviously he’s suffering with that, as well and the ramifications of that can be really extreme. So, is it possible that he could hurt someone or himself? Absolutely!”
