#so him telling sahira that they're not supposed to judge just reads as him trying to distance himself from the whole situation

[lonelier-version-of-you]

sounds like henrik and jac had the same method for 'dealing' with their sexual assaults

They really did :(

They both just... shut themselves down and tried to forget about it, because that was the only way either of them knew how to cope. They're very similar people in that regard (and in many others).

#asks #anons #tw;sexual assault #tw;sexual abuse #henrik csa storyline #now i'm thinking back on that scene in s13e33 (the ep where henrik treats a teenage boy who was groomed by his teacher) #when sahira is trying to discuss the case with henrik and she's just talking about what's most practical for the patient's operation #but henrik immediately assumes she's trying to talk about the quote-unquote ''relationship'' between the boy and his teacher #and he just sternly insists that ''we're not here to pass judgement'' #yet throughout the episode he's clearly angry at the teacher and later even confronts her and says he's reported her actions to her school #so him telling sahira that they're not supposed to judge just reads as him trying to distance himself from the whole situation #because he doesn't want to let himself get too involved or talk about it because it's too close to home and it'll trigger him further
