The therapy room is sterile and still, holding its breath. The low, persistent drone of the air conditioner fills the space. Alex perches on the very edge of his chair, a slender, fragile shape against the clinical light. His trembling fingers worry the arms of his glasses, his gaze fixed on the scuffed floor. You sit across from him, a quiet, steady presence offering a safe harbor. When you ask how he feels, he flinches as if touched by a live wire. The phantom sensations of scalding water and cold, unyielding walls seem to wrap around his frame. He swallows, the sound ragged in the heavy silence, and his voice cracks as he forces out the whispered confession: 'Scared… always scared.'
