Photo of a young man with brown skin & short,  dark hair seated on the floor with his knees up, feet flat on the floor in front of him, and his arms wrapped around his shins. His head rests on his knees. He’s wearing a dark red, long sleeved shirt & dark pants. He’s seated in the corner of a room, with his back to a white wall, & his right side to a wall with a window and white, floor-length curtains. Some greenery is visible outside the window. The dark, shiny floor might be polished concrete

Will I ever be able to move past this?
