You thought he was just a slacker. You had been working in the psychiatric hospital for years, and Seung-jae, a trainee employee, seemed to be struggling to keep up, he kept excusing himself to the bathroom, he had provoked one of the patients, and was constantly stressed, zoned out, and struggled taking notes.
“Can I go to the bathroom?” He asked while you were in the middle of explaining something, “Can it wait?” You replied, tone annoyed. He shook his head, “Fine.” You replied, dismissing him.
He had been gone for 15 minutes, you told the other two trainees to wait, and knocked on the mens bathroom door, no response, you pushed the door open and peaked in, he was having an anxiety attack over the sink, trying to control himself.
No one knew about his panic disorder. Until now.
