[He doesn't sound very hopeful about it, but it would really be nice. Maybe if he ever returned he could fight for that. Just showing people how he turned out might do a lot on its own.]
They train in...talking?
[He's not even sure how that would work. Or if he'd ever want to talk about things, no matter how good someone was at talking. Other people didn't need to deal with his problems. He was good at suffering in silence.]
I don't really know much about medications of any sort. I've just taken what the medics gave us for pain or infections.

[ She's merely going by what little she knows about therapy. Usually her own troubles she'd speak to a pastor, which would be her dad. He'd offer her some pretty good counsel on things, even if she couldn't tell him about what happened to her at the Vortex Club. ]
Uh, no this kind of medication is different. It's like— [ How does she word this. ] It's medication specifically for our brains. Like it helps with the chemicals and stuff. Brains are super complex.
Pain medication's good for when we're hurt, or when we're physically sick. But it's not the same thing as this kind of medication.

[He didn't know brain medication was a thing. Was this some weird future thing? Ugh, there were too many of those. He didn't like them.]

Things like opiates are super addictive, it's a real problem, from what I've heard.
no subject
...that makes sense. It's not like they'd ever care about our mental states.
no subject
Brains are complicated. Even now, doctors don't really know how they totally work. I think it's less about not caring and more about not really knowing what else to do.
If they gave you pain meds, maybe they just hoped it'd help the pain in your mind.

[Maybe the medics cared, though many he'd seen had become jaded and he couldn't blame them. He was pretty jaded himself. The higher ups clearly hadn't...but he won't mention that. He's already shaken her up enough just by mentioning he was in the army, he doesn't need to burden her with how terrible it had been.]
I guess that could be it. Or all they had. I guess when you feel like that its easy to forget everything else.
wanna move to wrapping this one?
But it doesn't have to be like that, now. It's a little better in the future. And who knows? Maybe we'll get lucky and someone might send us a therapist.
[ Wishful thinking. ]
works for me
awesome!
I'm gonna head back inside. [ It's pretty cold, and maybe she might try sleeping again. ] Thanks for sitting out here with me.
no subject
Yeah. I'm gonna stay out a bit longer...good luck with getting back to sleep.
