A young man’s triumph over mental illness
My heart was racing, pounding loudly in my ears, and my sheets were so wet with sweat, it felt like someone had poured a cup of water over my bed.
I tried to reassure myself.
You’re safe, Nachum.
You’re in your new apartment in Eretz Yisrael.
Aliza is safe—she’s fast asleep.
You have nothing to worry about; just turn over and go back to sleep.
But I couldn’t.
I felt an overwhelming sense of panic, of impending doom. Something terrible was about to happen. I just knew it.
