The vibrant, mixed-media collage she’d created, detailing her struggles with depression, adorned the lobby of a mental health clinic. A note, not her name, claimed it was an "anonymous" donation. Elara walked by it on her way to an appointment, her steps slowing, then stopping. The art was her therapy. Now, it was… public. She knew she should be glad it was helping people, but all she felt was a weight, an unnameable pressure. She continued to her therapy appointment, feeling like another patient.
