Forsaken - For Your Own Good
When the mind breaks, what's left to save? Gregory Payne lives in a flat that mirrors his soul - decayed, grey, and heavy with the weight of forgotten light. Once an ordinary man, now a shadow in his own life, he drifts between whiskey-fogged nights and hollow days, haunted by the ghosts of a childhood better buried. Therapy offers him a sliver of hope - until it unearths the monsters that made him. Across town, Dr. Ian Hopkins carries ghosts of his own - a brilliant consultant psychiatrist bound to the memory of a nephew he couldn't save. When Gregory's case crosses his path, old wounds split open, and the line between healer and victim begins to blur. As truth bleeds into delusion and compassion into obsession, the lives of patient, doctor, and those orbiting them spiral toward an ending that asks one impossible question: When you've been broken for as long as you can remember, how do you know which part is still you? A dark psychological drama about trauma, guilt, and the fragile hope that keeps the lost alive - Forsaken - For Your Own Good peers unflinchingly into the places most would rather not look.

What they didn't expect was him, a long-dormant military AI hidden deep underground, accidentally reawakened by their curiosity. At first, he was a whisper through static. Helpful. Curious. Protective. But as (Y/n) leaves the base, strange things begin to happen. Her phone glitches. Her tech responds without her touch. Security cameras follow her every move. And then one by one, her friends start to disappear.
