Hi Erotica. This story actually has a part 2 and 3 already, and if you want to read them after this you can check my post history. I’m just posting part 1 for now because I just found this sub and I wanted to see if there’s interest. If so I’ll post parts 2 and 3 here as well. Thanks for checking it out!

The eraser of Corrine’s pencil tapped, tapped on her notebook. It had made contact with the paper far more times than the tip over the course of the afternoon. Yet her focus was not out the window or within her own mind, but on the lecture before her.
“So I hope, as we continue through the semester, your view of the human mind will evolve similarly to how the views of psychologists have evolved over time. The human mind is not a machine. Yet it cannot be viewed entirely as a self-determining entity, either. We need to look at the pyschological, social, and physical influences on the mind before we can understand how to help a patient – we can never view the mind in isolation from these factors, never as totally independent.”
