Closing her eyes, she allowed herself to hyperventilate in the cold snow, pushing her tail between her legs. Her claws raked against her head, causing the blood on her pads to gush down her face, making everything rush back much faster than before. Suddenly, a rush of warmth pushed itself against her back.
"Allow yourself to fully go through what is troubling you, young one. Trying to stop those thoughts will only cause them to push themselves onto you much more forcefully than they would have before."
