E3: The Name of the Monster The Night of Breaking The night Yahya truly cracked, the stars outside blinked indifferently. He sat curled on his bed, breath shallow, palms slick, eyes darting between the ceiling and the ticking clock. Each heartbeat felt like a hammer striking from within—a warning, a countdown, an invisible alarm. It felt like dying. Again. But this time, something inside him snapped—not from fear, but from exhaustion. He was tired of surviving. His trembling fingers reached for his phone. He opened the browser and typed: “Heart races for no reason, feel like I’m dying but I’m not.” The first result glowed back at him: You might be experiencing a PANIC ATTACK. He blinked. The word struck like lightning, slicing through months of confusion. Panic attack. He scrolled. “Panic attacks can cause sudden feelings of terror, tight chest, racing heart, dizziness, and fear of dying. They are real. They are psychological. And they are manageable.” Yahya’s eyes burned—not from panic this time, but from something gentler, sharper: recognition. It had a name. It wasn’t an unseen curse. It wasn’t drama. It wasn’t weakness. He read for hours, his symptoms aligning like puzzle pieces: Shortness of breath ✅ Chest tightness ✅ Fear of losing control ✅ Feeling that something terrible is about to happen ✅ He scrolled through forums filled with strangers’ confessions. One message stopped him: “I thought I was dying. Turned out, it was a panic attack. Therapy helped me more than any medicine.” For the first time in months, Yahya felt hope stir beneath the fear. He wasn’t broken—he was human. And now, the monster had a name. The Morning After When dawn came, Yahya woke with something new inside him. Not calm exactly, but clarity—fragile, bright, and alive. While the house buzzed with clattering plates and the scent of fried parathas, Yahya sat silently with his phone in hand. His thumb hovered over the search bar. “Therapist near me for panic attacks.” Results flooded in: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Exposure Therapy. Talk Therapy. Words he didn’t fully understand—but they looked like hope spelled in unfamiliar letters. He rehearsed sentences under his breath, lines from a secret script: “I want to talk to someone.” “It’s called a panic disorder.” “It’s a real condition—a health condition.” The Wall of Shame Later that morning, he gathered the courage to tell his father. “Baba,” he began, steadying his voice, “I think I need to see a therapist.” His father’s brows rose sharply. “A therapist? For what? You’re not crazy.” Yahya tried again, softer but firm. “It’s panic attacks, Baba. I read about it. It matches everything. Therapy can help.” His father scoffed. “So now Google gives fatwas too? What will people think if they hear you’re seeing a mental doctor?” The words hit like cold metal. The air grew thick. A wall went up—made not of bricks, but of shame. Yahya wanted to scream, to break something, to shake the silence out of the room. But he didn’t. He just nodded. “Okay. Never mind.” The Quiet Rebellion That night, long after everyone slept, Yahya sat again under the faint glow of his phone screen. The same search page stared back at him. He didn’t close it. Something had shifted. He was done waiting for permission to heal. If they wouldn’t believe in his pain, he would. If they wouldn’t guide him, he would learn to guide himself. The fight ahead was his alone—but for the first time, Yahya wasn’t afraid of the word alone. mindcovez.com
