Joseph's S.A.D is situational and tends to present in situations where he is in a large crowd, or when he is eating in public.
Joseph picked up his smoking habits when he first moved to America, as an additional way to cope with the stressors of the move. The other coping mechanism was cutting.
Born and raised in rural France alongside his twin sister, Viviane, Joseph lived a quaint life with his family. A few years later, the twins’ younger brother, Marc, was born. The trio was practically inseparable, developing a close bond throughout their formative years and schooling. Ironically, their similarities did not end at their social natures. Each of the Bascet children grew an interest in some form of the creative arts. Viviane found comfort in music and had aspirations in her later teen years to become a pianist. Marc found himself drawn to performative arts, and sought employment as an artistic director specializing in dance. Joseph, on the other hand, found his muse in interior design and coordination. Unfortunately, these passions had meant the children would all move from their rural surroundings and pursue higher education in the cities. Marc and Viviane moved to the suburbs of Paris, attending universities within the nation’s capital. Joseph set his sights on New York City, and it was not long after graduating from high school before he took the plunge and made the move.
Unfortunately, his transition into the experience was not smooth. The culture shock of being a foreign exchange student in one of America’s most bustling environments had worsened his mental health, especially as time zone differences and scheduling lessened his accessibility to established support systems. For a period of time, Joseph had found himself turning to harmful coping mechanisms to handle the change, though this eventually stopped as he grew more adjusted to the environment and began finding new support systems at his university. It was during the latter years of his education that he met a man by the name of Konstantin, and the duo quickly formed a close bond with one another. They started dating not long after graduation, and initially secured employment within New York. Joseph began to build his portfolio as an interior designer from their shared apartment in Syracuse, and found himself wondering what would come for himself and his partner.
These questions didn’t go unanswered for long, as Konstantin came home one evening to announce that he had been offered the position of consultant in a reputable law firm. Ecstatic, Joseph encouraged him to take the job, though hesitancy bubbled when he realized the job required a cross-country move. After a thorough discussion, the duo agreed that this would be beneficial for both of them in the long run, and Joseph followed Konstantin to New Mexico in hopes of continuing his support of his partner’s flourishing career.
