The Leaves of a Victim never more with Steven Wilson

This episode is based on the coping skill called repression.
I do not rebirth Freud , but rather I delve into how I used it to survive the traumatic events of my past and the sex abuse I suffered in the 7th grade.
My coping skills revolve around hedonism; sex drugs and debauchery. All are considered to be unhealthy life choices. All are considered to be dangerous to the self. But these things help me now as they did back then as I am not any better at coping with my past.

Lawn care and the impression it leaves

This episode I talk about the Halo effect and the way judgment takes place upon us all the time. We also judge people; based on physical traits.
The Halo effect is defined in psychology as projecting attributes upon someone based on unrelated physical appearance; for example, one might say, “she looks crazy” or “he looks smart”.
This show is in response to some feedback and comments I have gotten from listeners.
Also, I wanted to extend an invitation to you all to visit my artist website as many have asked to see some of my recent work through art therapy.

There are no pics of leather craft or pyrography done within the past year and a half. There is a link to my fiction and poetry published under my real name. I apologize for being tardy on this point. It was not my intention to keep it separate; I just didn’t think you would be interested.
Halo on!

What’s wrong with now?

this episode is about Timing.
A time to heal, a time to live, a time to die. I have always believed that now is the best time to do something because now is all you have. Making plans to do something later on may make you seem civilized or adult, but it is completely illogical. No one is guaranteed tomorrow.
I begin this episode with a letter from the Marquis De Sade to his wife. In it he uses a simple analogy of a traveler on a road filled with traps. He speaks of blame; for the traveler or the one who set the traps?
I have always enjoyed that as a foundation stone for philosophical discussions pertaining to desire and the concept of guilt. It seems to get people to think about the basics of cause to effect.
