They're probably annoying or scary.
It's kinda sad. I thought therapists were trained to have compassion.

The longer I live, the more I wonder if anyone really has much control over what he does. There is even the idea among some that we really have no free will. Think about it. Does anyone choose their parents? Where their parents live? The church their parents decide to attend, the friends their parents make (therefore, your friends), the school they attend? Now think about how much influence just those factors have had on your life. Throw in genetics, and sometimes it seems we were just given our personality and problems. No one chooses their personality, or it's disorders.

On top of that...
There have even been studies that show that our unconscious mind makes decisions before we are even aware. It's a very interesting study. And, in some ways, it gets me off the hook, so to speak. There is very strong evidence that free will in humans is an illusion. Even though, obviously, if someone commits a crime, he needs to be punished.

You'll be fascinated.
