Since his attack Theo hadn't been faring well. He'd quit his job and had cloistered himself away in his room more often than not. He'd almost entirely stopped eating, sleep came in sporadic interrupted bursts when Theo couldn't stay awake anymore and he was jumpier than ever which was saying something. The incident had stirred up too much, memories about his father's actions and his time in the Janus Thickey ward both.
It was only through constant care of his friends that he ate at all and it was only because of Blaise that he eventually agreed to go to therapy. It was less because he thought it would help him and more because he couldn't stand that he'd worried Blaise so much. He didn't know if the therapist being someone he knew was a good or bad thing; at least Alec would have some understanding of what it was to be a Pureblood and a Slytherin.
Stepping out into the world was a challenge that he couldn't cope with yet, so he'd Apparated to the psychiatrist's building to avoid seeing anyone - to avoid being potentially vulnerable again was the real reason, but he quashed that thought as easily as he'd been quashing everything else lately. Nervous despite himself, definitely of the opinion that this wasn't going to help and shielded by denial so thick that he even believed it, Theo walked in to his first therapy session.
