Cry Of Fear summary.

Somewhere in Scandinavia, there is a 19 year old named Simon Henriksson who suffers from anxiety and depression. He lives with his mother and has an only friend named Sophie, who he also has a crush on. One day, he was ran over being a victim of a hit and run and became crippled from the waist down and is now suffering further with a mental trauma. Simon's psychiatrist Doctor Purnell suggested that Simon should try a new form of cognitive therapy. Simon was told to simply write a book on his emotions to get the trauma out of his head, in which the events of the story begins. The events in the story is an illustration of Simon's mind. Further down the story shows how the therapy is working out. In the book Simon writes, he makes a mental projection of himself fighting through his trauma. There are different endings to this story, so you are in control of Simon and the choices he makes. Depending on the choices you have made, you will get either the good ending, the sad ending, the bad ending, or the really bad ending.

My personal reaction through this adventure was that I felt sorry for Simon and what he was going through, and some of the events in the story were creepy and sometimes scary.

I believe the intent of the storyline was to put people in someone else's shoes before you judge them, or to think about what others could be going through before just focusing on yourself all the time.

The way this story was organized was mostly a chronological pattern. There are significant events throughout the story, one happening after another in a pattern.
