Subject: Problems with communication
There
are some issues that seem clear enough to me, but I am unable
to see a way out. As time goes by, it becomes more difficult
for me to accuse anyone of wrong doing. Once upon a time I
looked into psychology as a possible direction to understand a disorder I
was suffering. I came to realize at that time that there are certain
personality disorders that make it impossible for the person suffering from
them to communicate effectively. (Cf. DSM 301.00 etc.)
Unfortunately, there was precious little that could be done for me until I
myself could admit that there might be a problem to be dealt with. I
think the sad plight of many homeless people is due to such suffering; the
inability to step outside and judge one's own actions using objective
standards.
