A Theraputic Construct

Postby Cate68 » Tue Oct 01, 2013 5:00 pm

I need some guidance here. In rejecting all that we are taught, how does one go forward in life?

I come from a family and am married into, Liberalism. The liberal medium means well, but yes, labels and "allowances" are a sanitization and assimilation of what is considered abberant in to the culture.

But yes, once the old constructs go away, you don't have much. I suppose that you could study the lives of other people who have come out of these old constructs and see how they do it.

But this is something that I have always wondered.
One of the greatest blasphemies is the taking of one's freedom of thought, dictating matters of the heart and the theft of another's personal peace.

Everyday I live is an act of rebellion.

In terms of rejecting psychiatry? Is this what you mean? I would say that you go forward with life based upon your own hopes and dreams and what you want out of life.

Yes, that is exactly what I mean.
