If your upbringing was seriously odious in more ways than anyone would want to image, so much so that survival itself shaped the person, can the person ever be free that past? Talking of it does not help, although the person did try, just once, by disclosing bits around the edges to a Psychiatrist, but it was a disaster. It was too overwhelming. Through such an upbringing between the ages of 4 and 20 the person is the sum of the abuse, violence, disgust, torment, neglect and fear that were their daily existence. An adult can escape the outside façade of their lives, their physical environs, by relocating, changing employment, habits, cloths, appearance and associates. This has been done. But is it not a person’s inability to escape their self that leads them to suicide? To seek to the grail of peace it offers. How can such a person ever escape the wealth of darkness within?
