Comment on ChapterAn Abyss - Chapter 18
Are people in the comments section stupid, Lou has stockholm syndrome and needs an actual doctor not Kenny who hasn't set up any boundaries and continues to allow Lou to do as he pleases. But as long as they get to see them fu** like rabbits not dealing with the trauma is fine, frankly Lou should be sent away to a professional to unlearn that abuse

@Oh dear
1. Not Stockholm syndrome. 
In Stockholm syndrome you form an 'attachment' to the person/persons who abused/held you captive.
Kenny wasn't his abuser, he hated and feared his abuser. 
2. This 'world' is set at a time when psychology/psychiatry had barely started to exist.
Most Dr would simply diagnosis him as being 'simple minded' and suggest he is unable to recover but should be put in a private hospital/'home'⁷ for the rest of his life.

Kenny is the best person to look after him, because he remembers Kenny from when he was a child (10 years before) and trusts him because he was a family friend.
Abuse, particularly long term abuse received as a child ,takes years to get over.
Many never get over it at all.
Yes, this fact is...sh*t
