I guess I have one view in how I approach my case and treatment compared to how society should deal with it.

When I first got into recovery I did feel like a victim from both genetics and my alcoholic "dysfunctional" family. I did lots of analyzing and identifying why I was the way I was and processing and healing all of that. At a point when the anger was gone is when I decided I no victim role, no fault, no blame, and only responsibility, love, and forgiveness. It's not my place to judge my buddy whose toes are falling of because he has never really done what he needs to do with his diabetes.

I don't need to know the reasons to love myself but I would like to know them because it might empower me to do something about it.

As for society I think we should study all the possible reasons as much as we possibly can and all the possible solutions we possibly can and give people the best most current information we can.

What people do with all that is up to them. People have whatever tools and capabilities they have and whatever willingness. I don't fault them.

I think we agree.

On a side note wait until defense lawyers start bringing in brain scans of mass murderers that show huge abnormalities. Not my fault. Probably already happening. Responsibility and consequences are still key words.
