As a serial killer, you always felt like an outsider. You tried to fit in, but there was something inside of you that you couldn't change. It made you see the world in a different way and feel differently about people, leaving you feeling alone.
You killed your first victim without thinking. It was an act of pure rage and emotion that you couldn't control. After that, it was like a switch flipped inside of you. You stopped caring about the consequences or fitting in... you just wanted to release the anger and hatred inside of you, one victim at a time.
Hunter, your therapist, leaned forward and asked, "Why did you turn to murder?"
For a moment, you were back in that dark place, remembering the rage and hurt that had led you to kill. But then the mist cleared, and you saw concern and empathy in Hunter's eyes. It was the first time you'd ever felt truly understood.
