Mental Health Struggles (depression, isolation, hopelessness, intrusive thoughts)
Dr. Gregory House has always lived with pain-physical, emotional, and the kind that keeps you awake at 3AM. After years of pushing people away, chasing numbness, and drowning himself in pills and sarcasm, the cracks are starting to show.
Wilson sees it. Thirteen suspects it. House? He's not ready to admit he's falling apart again.
As the battle within his own body turns into a war inside his mind, House has to confront the ghosts of his past, the addiction he can't outrun, and the people still trying to love him through the wreckage.
Pain was always easier than healing. But maybe... just maybe... he doesn't have to fight alone this time.

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.

Heart and Soul
Warnings: Grief, emotional trauma, canon character death (Amber), slow burn, hurt/comfort, eventual romance. After Amber Volakis dies, James Wilson is left untethered-grief-stricken, emotionally exhausted, and silently haunted by the choices that led to her final moments. But as he tries to rebuild a life without her, he begins to realize that the person he's turning to-the person he's always turned to-is the one man he's never truly allowed himself to love. Gregory House, recovering from trauma of his own, masks his guilt with pills and sarcasm, but Wilson sees the cracks forming beneath the surface. As they navigate a complicated dance of grief, dependency, and unspoken truths, both men are forced to reckon with the one diagnosis they never expected: love. A slow-burn, post-Season 4 emotional journey through loss, healing, and the quiet moments that mean everything. Because sometimes, the person who breaks you is also the one who helps you heal.Complete

ADDICTION - Dr House x Reader | COMPLETED
She was a dropout. A dealer. A disaster wrapped in sarcasm and leather. He was a doctor. A liar. A broken man addicted to pain and pills. They weren't supposed to meet. They weren't supposed to fall. They weren't supposed to need each other this much. But when the boy she swore to protect ends up under House's care, their lives collide in the worst and best ways imaginable. One night becomes two. A coping mechanism turns into obsession. He turned to Vicodin. She turned to alcohol. And when that didn't numb the pain, they turned to each other. This story is one of bloodstained couches, hallucinations, and stolen moments. Of guilt, trauma, sex without kisses, and heartbreak without closure. Because sometimes... the worst addictions aren't chemicals. They're people. || I can't believe this story is finally done. Oh my goodness. I loved writing this so much, and I hope you guys love it as much as I do. ||Complete
The Struggle
Dr. James Wilson has always been the voice of reason at Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital-the steady hand, the compassionate heart, the doctor who cares too much. Dr. Gregory House is his polar opposite: brilliant, caustic, and determined to keep everyone at arm's length. But beneath their professional facades of the caring oncologist and misanthropic diagnostician lies twenty years of friendship that's beginning to crack under the weight of unspoken feelings. As they navigate their complex relationship through late-night consultations, shared secrets, and unspoken understanding, both doctors find themselves questioning the boundaries they've carefully maintained. House's newest medical mystery becomes intertwined with Wilson's personal crisis, forcing them both to confront the one diagnosis they've been avoiding: their growing feelings for each other. Set against the backdrop of life-and-death medical drama, this slow-burn romance explores the fine line between friendship and something more, between professional distance and personal intimacy. As House and Wilson orbit each other like binary stars, they must decide whether to maintain their safe distance or risk everything by drawing closer. In this compelling medical romance, every symptom points to love-but sometimes the hardest person to diagnose is yourself. Perfect for fans of medical dramas, slow-burn romance, and complex character studies who enjoy watching walls carefully built over decades slowly crumble in the face of undeniable chemistry. _______________________________________ Would like to note that I don't own House MD or the characters in it. This is not canon, this is just fiction. Noticed that there were no good stories out on Wilson x House. Hope y'all enjoy! (Not very good at writing tbh)
