We that have been emotionally brutalised by the rejection of family, friends and society.

We that have been emotionally brutalised by the rejection of family, friends and society. This is not easily overcome, and is much more easily internalised. We can’t underestimate this trauma and its profound effect. This explains why we act out in so many self-destructive ways. To know the pain of the past and integrate its torture is terrible work. Yet, not to get beyond our pain and instead simply to act out our traumas or sink into conformity, depression, addiction, and conventional living destroys our gift as outsiders and truth seekers. And we deceive ourselves when we call criticism of our bad behaviour addiction.

Society may fear us and even hate us, but we can help to redeem them—and us all. Everyone can use our cathartic process of recovery as a paradigm for the profound change required for all of us if we are to survive. We need to come out of our dissociated sleep and change our addiction orientation into our orientation to life itself in this new form of recovery.
