Telegram Bot API (PHP). How to start a new conversation in an existing one?

Question

PHP

Hello. I am working with the following library: https://github.com/akalongman/php-telegram-bot
How can I start a new Conversation in the current one? I have a StartCommand.php and it uses Conversation and a menu in the form of Keyboard buttons. When the user selects the button, the bot will display some text. So, it is necessary that after pressing the "Feedback" button, a new Conversation is launched, where the user will be asked to send a message to the admins.

<?php
namespace Longman\TelegramBot\Commands\SystemCommands;

use Longman\TelegramBot\Conversation;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Commands\SystemCommand;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Entities\InlineKeyboard;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Entities\InlineKeyboardButton;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Entities\Keyboard;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Entities\KeyboardButton;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Entities\Chat;
use Longman\TelegramBot\Request;

class StartCommand extends SystemCommand
{
    protected $name = 'start';
    protected $description = 'Start command';
    protected $usage = '/start';
    protected $version = '1.1.0';
    
    public function execute()
    {
        $message = $this->getMessage();
        $chat = $message->getChat();
        $user = $message->getFrom();
        $text = trim($message->getText(true));
        $chat_id = $chat->getId();
        $user_id = $user->getId();
        
        $data = [
            'chat_id' => $chat_id,
        ];

        if ($chat->isGroupChat() || $chat->isSuperGroup()) {
            $data['reply_markup'] = Keyboard::forceReply(['selective' => true]);
        }
        
        // Conversation start
        $this->conversation = new Conversation($user_id, $chat_id, $this->getName());
        $notes = &$this->conversation->notes;
        !is_array($notes) && $notes = [];
        // cache data from the tracking session if any
        $state = 0;
        if (isset($notes['state'])) {
            $state = $notes['state'];
        }
        $result = Request::emptyResponse();

        switch ($state) {
            case 0:
                $keyboards = [];
                $keyboards[] = new Keyboard(
                        ['Information'],
                        ['Books', 'Feedback'],
                        ['Hide menu']
                    );
                   
                $keyboard = $keyboards[0]
                        ->setResizeKeyboard(true)
                        ->setOneTimeKeyboard(false)
                        ->setSelective(false);
                        
                if ($text === '') {
                    $notes['state'] = 0;
                    $this->conversation->update();
                    $data['text']         = 'Please choose a section:';
                    
                    $data['reply_markup'] = $keyboard;
                    $result = Request::sendMessage($data);
                }
                elseif ($text === 'Information') {
                    $this->conversation->update();
                    $data['text'] = file_get_contents(__DIR__ . '/../../other/texts/infrormation.txt');
                    $data['reply_markup'] = $keyboard;
                    $result = Request::sendMessage($data);
                }
                elseif ($text === 'Books') {
                    $this->conversation->update();
                    $data['text'] = file_get_contents(__DIR__ . '/../../other/texts/books.txt');
                    $data['reply_markup'] = $keyboard;
                    $result = Request::sendMessage($data);
                }
                elseif ($text === 'Feedback') {
                    /**
                     * HERE NEED START NEW CONSERVATION
                     * LIKE THESE (StartCommand or SurveyCommand)
                     */
                }
                elseif ($text === 'Hide menu') {
                    $this->conversation->stop();
                    $data['text'] = 'Done!';
                    $data['reply_markup'] = Keyboard::remove();
                    $result = Request::sendMessage($data);
                }
                $notes['name'] = $text;
                $text          = '';
        }
        return $result;
    }
}

I did not find any help on github or stackoverflow, but the idea itself is real for implementation. I really hope for an answer. Thanks in advance.

And this will not be resolved. Because you don't understand how Telegram works. Bots are not allowed to create chats themselves and write first. What is right.
