Stockholm Syndrome

“I’m ready to cooperate with my treatment.”

A smile spread across Edward’s face at my words. “I’m so glad, Nina,” he said, giving my hand a squeeze. “Shall we begin?”

I nodded.

“Repeat after me…”

…

Over the course of the next several treatment sessions, Edward’s treatment began to work. Slowly but surely, my ‘memories’ of the university, of Lori and Jessica, Tiffany and James, Enzo and everyone else who I had created in my mind, started to become foggy.

I slowly began to learn that I had been having these hallucinations and delusions for a long time, which was why my loving mother sent me to Mountainview Psychiatric Facility. I had been there for four years, but was stuck inside of a fantasy in my head that Edward couldn’t get me out of. My electroshock therapy must have freed my mind from this fantasy just enough for his treatment to work, he said. I was so grateful for Edward; soon, I would be home with my family. I would be fixed. Just like Justin.

Eventually, he took the restraints off of my wrists and ankles and allowed me to walk around my room. He told me that, in time, he would let me meet the other patients and doctors — but for now, I had to stay in my room in case I had another delusion. He said that the last time he let me roam with the other patients, I had a delusion and hurt someone really badly. I didn’t want to hurt anyone again.

Our sessions increased in frequency and intensity. Sometimes it became too intense and the delusions would start to come back; I would start to think that Edward was holding me hostage somewhere and that my friends were looking for me, but over time, I started to get better at controlling the delusions by repeating the mantra that Edward taught me.

“My name is Nina Harper. I am a patient at Mountainview Psychiatric Facility. I am sick, but Edward will fix me and make me better. When I’m better, I can go home to my family.”
