I am Kate, Kate is me, Kate was all the parts I hated of myself, my way of coping with the rape and all the shitty things that had happened to me.
Lila had tried many times to break the subject to me, but I always shut her down and threw a tantrum whenever she suggested that Kate might not be real
Dr Greene knew this as well, he understood this was my way of coping, he also realized that the abuse I was experiencing with Elias was what was triggering my nightmares and panic attacks
But he wanted me to realize it too
I didn't know I was being abused by Elias until I couldn't get up anymore and even then I would have stayed I know I would have
