Arben’s Vent

After a suicide attempt, Arben Davis finds himself (in)voluntarily committed to a psychiatric facility—haunted by voices he’s heard since childhood and reluctant to speak of them. Is it madness, trauma, or something more elusive? As Arben is forced to confront his past, he revisits a childhood marked by neglect, emotional abuse, and isolation—ostracized by peers and dismissed by the very people meant to protect him. A gifted musician with a fractured mind, Arben teeters on the edge of surrender. If the doctors can’t uncover the truth behind his torment, he may spend the rest of his life institutionalized. But after years of silence and struggle, Arben isn’t sure he has the strength to keep fighting.
