Our pain - through you, our tears - shoulder.
It's just a job?.. It is on the shoulder.
Helping the soul does not break from the wind,
A thin branch does not become, I do not want...
Helping others in the dark to stay alive,
You yourself sometimes as flickering candles
A thick draft of our troubles and misfortunes.
Someone needs you warm and protected.

- That's amazing, Inga, ' said Lisa. - Why is it that life can seem absolutely necessary or absolutely meaningful based on just one decision? I have lived long enough in our case. Mostly there are people I grow up or, conversely, younger. Teenagers. One of them continues to be sad and slow. And someone who suddenly finds the meaning of existence. Suddenly neither from that nor from this starts, for example, to draw. Or writing a novel. Or suddenly decides to become an architect. She's a girl from the second floor suddenly realized that just wants to have a baby and get married. But what struck me more was the old man from the fifteenth. He decided to sell his house and the money to go on a world tour. Went yesterday, absolutely happy. What would it be? Each of us has some hidden meaning of life, and we him dig up? Open? Now what do You think, everything is already instilled in us, and we just have to dig, dig and dig until you dig?
Inga hesitated.
- You know, Lisa, I'm not sure this process is that you dig up their own meanings. In my opinion, everything is much more complicated and interesting. Especially in creative people. You are digging up the meanings you create them. Like grab ideas from space and show them to the world and themselves. So many wonders around and within you, in your thoughts and feelings. You can come up with anything. And believe it. And to make your own. And to show other people that they also were able to try on with my life.

- I again have to undergo therapy.
Why? You are a therapist!
- You saw a tow truck pulling a tow truck?!

For a young person there can be more healing therapy than a beautiful young woman.

Is that a new method of treatment - the humiliation customers?
- It is resorted to only the best doctors.

If you are at least partly responsible for the death of your own therapist, to live it is not easy, especially because you no longer have a therapist who would help you cope with the problem. Sometimes irony literally spits in your face.

They didn't understand that healing - it is all the rest of life that some wounds will never heal completely. Therapy can help to heal open wounds, but the scars still remain. The body can behave as if it was all right; but the leather is tight and sensitive to touch, like that of a man who suffered serious burns throughout the body. Fire can singe person to the soul. It is the same with sexual violence. It is the fire that incinerates. Someone has serious burns affect only part of the body. I was covered with burns the whole thing.

The only crime of Hannibal was the impact.

He always had a notebook, and from time to time, when we talked, he made notes in it. I was nervous, but he allowed me to look at his record when I want to. He never wrote anything like "asshole" or "this guy is crazy" - just made notes to not forget anything. He must have been somewhere other Notepad where he wrote down "what a douche", but to me it didn't show it.
But if such a notebook was not, after such a patient like me, he had to start it.

You're firing me? But you are my shrink! Isn't that illegal in medicine?

One of the most powerful insights was the awareness of the fact that I'm not tied to Bertha, and to those personal values, which I attributed to her, and these values are nothing to do with her had not.

- You talked a lot about the second item on our list: "Immersion in an alien mind." <...> Anyway, your thoughts, and your consciousness. I would like to know what benefits you will receive, allowing them to appear, or I will say even more, causing them to appear.
- Forcing to appear? I don't know.<...> Your statement that I force them to appear - what is it? - has for me the emotional sense.
We must find a way to find this meaning. <...> Please, consider this question: if you hadn't thought about it, what do you think?

In my opinion, the reason for the hysteria is a traumatic event that a person experiences in an altered state of consciousness.

One of the most important permissions is a license to stop doing nonsense and start thinking. Many patients adulthood from childhood there was not a single independent thought, they have completely forgotten how to think for themselves and what it is. But if the time to give permission, they can overcome this barrier. And very glad, when at 65 or 70 years of age for the first time in my entire adult life expressing some kind of self-conscious consideration.
