Restoring The Blue Eyed Wolf.

Chapter 98.

John's POV.

The next therapist to come in for the interview is the human named Clark. As I wait for him I ponder over everything I just went through in the previous interview.

I like Penelope a lot. She's very professional and kind. Always asked for my permission first and was compassionate when talking about my losses. I wonder if Clark will be the same?

A knock sounded at the door and I stood. " Come in. " I said.

He opened the door and looked at me. With a smile on his face he walked up to me and held out his hand to shake. " Hello, I'm Clark. It's very nice to meet you. " he said.

I held out my other hand. He looked confused for a second. " I try not to shake hands with my hurt wrist. It's pretty stiff today. " I explain.

His eyes widen a fraction. He immediately switched hands and shook mine. " I deeply apologize for that. I should have asked which hand was hurt before I offered. " he said.

" It's ok, you couldn't have known. " I said.

We both then took a seat. He held a notebook and pen as well. " Before we begin I want to ask if you are ok with me taking a few notes?" He asked.

I nodded. " Yes sir. You can take as many notes as you need. " I said.

He nodded. " If you don't mind me asking, what made you decide to seek help in the form of therapy?" He asked.

" I've been having some anxiety issues. I had my first panic attack as of yesterday. I never really thought about therapy but it was highly suggested by Alpha Grace and my parents so I figured I'd give it a shot. " I said.

He wrote down a few notes. " I'm glad you decided of therapy. I found it to be very helpful when I was in need of help. " he sad.

He then straightened up. " I would like to ask you a few questions but you are able to ask me as many questions as you want as well. " he said.

I nodded. " Ok, that's fine. " I said.

" Growing up, have you been out under a lot of stress before?" He asked.

I tilt my head in confusion at the question. " I guess in some instances I have. I am the son of the second in command of my home pack. So there were some instances where I was out under a lot of stress. " I said.

" The reason I ask is because an overload of built up stress over the years can start to come out all at once in many different forms. Some people can get very overstimulated. Things are too loud, too bright, just over all very overwhelming. You could be depressed and feel like your stuck or it can come out as anxiety. " he said.

" I've never felt any of this before. Why would it suddenly affect me now?" I ask.

" The body and mind work in mysterious ways. You never know how much stress you were really under until something happens that triggers said issue. I have certain things called triggers that set me off into a panic attack even after all these years of therapy I have personally gone through. " he said.

" So you think my mind was already very stressed and the suddenness of the attack set it all off into anxiety?" I ask.

" In a way, yes. The mind is very complicated. I don't think that your stress growing up caused this. I believe that it is a small factor in your issues. " he said.

" How so?" I ask.

" Something tells me that you are so used to working that you don't know how to relax and give yourself a day off, correct?" He asked.
