A therapist is someone who helps people deal with difficult things in their lives, especially in their pasts. They help give you the skills you need to deal with your problems, so that they don't like sort of eat you alive. I had one back home, actually.

[Had being the operative word, actually. Because there was something sketchy about Dr. Bernier and Alex hadn't trusted her, not really. Considering how much Alex trusted people everyone in her life said that she shouldn't, the fact that Alex didn't was a big deal.]

And she definitely taught me some things that helped with like having panic attacks and stuff.

[But not sleep. Never sleep.]
