Does the concept of therapy exist in the Dredd universe?

Because how did Techie manage to get through all of that trauma from his physical and sexual abuse to end up having a kid and a wife in such a short amount of time that Dredd himself still remembers him?

“So your name is Bill?” Phasma asked with a smile. “Pleasure to meet you, my name is Lenina.”

“William, r-really, but Bill for short,” he said, a small smile dawning on his face, and then shook her hand. “Nice to m-meet you, Lenina.”

He took one look at his dirty work uniform and said, “Oh! Sorry, I th-think I’ve gotten you dirty.”

“Not m-me,” Techie smiles, beyond happy for them. “I just think it’s about t-time he settles down. The level of st-stress he’s under will k-kill him!”

“Hey Techie, how are you doing?” MP asks gently. She reaches for his hand with a smile.

“I’m so an-anesth-thetiz-ed that I just feel… A l-little hyper?” He grins at MP and moves his pupils around to show them off. “MP, my eyes are n-new! They hurt a little but they f-fit me well and are supposed to be more bio-friendly. Whatever th-that means!” He takes her by the hand and pulls her into a warm hug.

“What! That’s s-so great!” He gives MP a highfive. Noticing her endless praise for Hux, he says smugly, “If I didn’t know b-better, I’d think you have a crush on Hux!”

Techie crosses his arms and gives MP a toothy grin.

She climbed on the cot, nuzzling into him as close and possible. He was so warm and so soft. “I want to stay in your arms forever, I never want this to end” she yawns happily. She stared at him starry eyed with love. “I love you, so so much” she gives him so soft kiss on his cute nose

“I love you too, Sarah. I’m the l-luckiest man in the universe.”

Slowly, he drifted off to sleep with the warm, reassuring weight of his girlfriend with him. It was the most peaceful rest he’d had in years.

A flash of red caught his eye. There weren’t that many red-heads around after all. “Hux! We need to discuss–” his vocoder voice cut off mid sentence as he finally got a decent look at the man. It wasn’t the General, but… “How…? Who are you?” he demanded. -kylocanyounot

Techie froze and felt ice run through his veins. Why is Kylo Ren, of all people, talking to him?! The blood is pulsing so hard in his ears that he doesn’t even know what the man is saying, and can only stare blankly at him.

“Um, ah,” he says, very intelligently.

And then bolts for the nearest exit.

Techie takes Ren’s hand carefully in his own. “I c-can see your shine. It’s lighting up th-the whole Finalizer!” He laughs a little and adds, “You can’t see it, but *my* eyes can p-pick up the light coming f-from inside of you.”

Techie pokes Ren’s chest right over his heart. “From right there,” he says, confident.

Techie and Adeline Hux [Closed] [Part 3]

It wasn’t safe on this planet anymore. Maybe NOTHING was safe. He needed to get back to Ren. Ren could help them! Hopefully…

They sped off to the closest transport ship; a good five miles off. The trip was a little uneventful, so Techie began to sing something soft and soothing for Addie.
