Adam returned from visiting his homeland a shell of himself.

Once a confident & competent IT professional, he was now drowning in mysterious flashbacks & intense dissociation.

It was so severe, he’d sit at home for hours staring at a dot on the wall — so persistent, years of therapy & over a dozen pharmaceuticals hardly made a dent.

Out of pure desperation, Adam tried MDMA therapy.

He believes it helped him break the spell of C-PTSD.

& get payback on the people who hurt him.

Notes

Direct Adam quote about MDMA therapy: “In a way that talk therapy just… couldn't reach.” “Didn’t” was dropped before “couldn’t” as redundant.
