Dissociations: our experience is that most of our problems and behaviours result from normal instinctive drives being carried to insane extremes by escapist actions.
For example, eating, drinking, taking an everyday risk, feeling a normal range of emotions, etc. are natural, essential behaviours. When someone becomes an overeater, alcoholic, gambler, or depressed, etc. these normal drives are taken to insane extremes. They eat large amounts of food, drink large amounts of alcohol, bet large amounts of money, or feel suicidal.
These insane physical and mental extremes not only hurt us but hurt others as well.
This tells us that our problems and behaviours, whether mental or physical, are the symptoms of a dissociation illness—a sort of escapist insanity.
To sum up, our common problem is dissociation problem that causes normal instinctive drives to go to insane extremes. This results in all of our various symptoms—our various problems and behaviours.
