As someone with rather severe anxiety, this is a VERY familiar conversation. Covering the topic of medicating it away and dissociating, too.
Very well presented here. I can't imagine having a shred of the mental fortitude hiker even has to be as stable as they've been since the ordeal started.

Oh yes, the old "just smoke/swallow/inject some of that stuff and all your worries won't bother you anymore."
This page actually hits a bit close to home for me.
(In a good way, confirming that my decisions were the correct ones)
Been there. If i hadn't severed ties to those people, i'd honestly be either in prison, or in the ground by now.

A lot better! ^^
It'll be interesting to see how Hiker and Forl deal with the Jat situation. Or how Jat himself will develop as a character.
As the writer, you've got a clean slate to work with, given that his memories have been eaten.
And i can't see Hiker and Forl pushing him away / leaving him behind.
Even though i personally might have.

I don't think it's as simple as Jat is a clean slate. He's already made mention that he knows how to fight. And the traumas suffered before the silvão eats the memories are very apparently still felt after the memory is gone. Jat may be a whole bundle of pain hidden under his smoke and memory loss, just waiting to surface. Maybe violently, maybe miserably, maybe both.
That's definitely how I feel about drugs.
They're medicines. You don't take medicine unless there's something that needs to be fixed. And if it cannot be fixed by medicine, then you should not be taking it, even if it makes it feel better for a short time.
For myself, I was prescribed Lexapro for anxiety, and it has made my life SO MUCH BETTER!
All it does is take away the razor-sharp, jagged edges, and leaves me with smooth, soft edges that I can work with in my own thoughts. All the anger and rage isn't an existential issue anymore, it's just something to ponder and analyze, until I've found the source. Then I can deal with it, safely and constructively.
