It took me awhile to understand this sense of desensitization and fictional reality that these characters are bent to deal with, but I support the investigation of these ideas. You get serious credit for experimenting with this concept and I like how this ends with such a humane conclusion. Understanding the technological factors of this "Neo-Psychiatry" does feel a bit exhausting, but the characters seem to undergo unique "emotions," something not seen very much.

It does seem a bit nerve-wrecking seeing how far these ideas may go in a story, but you look to have these concepts well analyzed. This story is particularly haunting, even in such fictional reality, but keep up the great work. With close eyes on these distressing concepts, this could be a really, really good story. Thumbs-up.
