Once upon a time, Tyler was okay. He was barely glued together, but a smile was always present on his lips. His grades had slipped from A's to B's, but it was nothing he couldn't fix. He was becoming distant, but he always came back around. Everything seemed to change on the third of December. His pieces fell apart, and his smile melted away. He had flunked the entirety of his classes and he didn't appear to care. He secluded himself completely and didn't allow anybody into his mind.
Once upon a time, Tyler was okay...
What people don't seem to understand is that you're always trapped in your own mind. You're trapped with your thoughts and with the little voice that criticizes everything you do. There is no escape. When you're stuck inside your own head, it's extremely easy to fall apart, to break, to snap.
And that's exactly what Tyler did.

Somebody Catch my Breath - Joshler
Tyler didn't belong in Sick Minds. Sick Minds was for druggies and nut cases, not a 17 year old boy with a promising future in basketball and a loving family. He shouldn't be locked up just because he gets sad sometimes. WARNING: This fic is based in a rehabilitation center for young boys, and deals with some pretty heavy themes. If you're triggered by self-harm, suicidal thoughts, mentions of eating disorders, drugs or child abuse, I would not suggest that you read this. That being said, I hope you enjoy this mess.Complete
