That was very interesting and I am still trying to digest it. I'll have to read it again when I am more alert... and again... and again LOL

I found this part speaks volumes:

"He/she will have come to distrust his natural emotions and may have further lost touch with them as a result of drug regimes. He/she will need help recognising ordinary emotional reactions and believing they are normal."

I have life experiences far from the norm of most people which has resulted in severe PTSD and more. It isn't really probable that I could have experienced the terrors I have seen and still remain "normal". It all gets very confusing as to what is abnormal in my life and what is a "normal" response.
