Sapphires 1

Mine to keep 19

Fast forwarding three months, we learn how Stede has spent the time, and Stede reaches out to Ed to reconnect.

Content warning: This chapter goes into more depth about Stede's childhood and the therapy he receives. There is a history of emotional neglect, but not violence or other trauma. There are sad moments, but Stede is happier and in a much better place by the end of this chapter.

I included real details of a type of therapy for trauma and childhood issues called Internal Family Systems.  This is a great intro video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DdZZ7sTX840&t=31s (there are many more at the IFS YouTube page), and this is a wonderful piece https://ifs-institute.com/resources/articles/evolution-internal-family-systems-model-dr-richard-schwartz-ph-d the founder of the therapy wrote explaining IFS if you want to learn more!
Find an IFS provider here https://ifs-institute.com/practitioners or by searching this site https://psychologytoday.com/us/therapists in your area and filtering for IFS under types of therapy.
