A trap of culture-shock where prevention of memories
of extreme mental and physical traumatization is
important, is my problem, to summarise it once again.
In life, extreme isolation is a major consequence of what
I have been through --no friends and family is totally cut off.
My situation is quite unique. Where a map out? Good, I
don't need, I need the best. Best is not local, good isn't
local, bad is local.

A factor worth knowing, since you like the feline
pounce : I have been able with excellent equine that no
one else could handle (a taste for danger and unusual
sensitivity). My core background includes much for
extremes. Much reckless travel (sign of basic, more
importantly successful, trust), broad education (science
and logic and fact-based arts). I've done considerable
surgery (the insides of life/death).

All starts with life. Then all depends on what life
surrounds you. For most people it is nothing except
regulated sport and brain domination and driving.

Besides skill with dangerous racing and jumping horses,
large, fast, dangerous dogs have liked me. That is the core.
How relevant then are cat abilities?

My aversion to all who are of religion may be this: What is
under your brain? A pew or med school seat or university bench
means you took in what was dished off to you. There are bad MDs,
bad JDs, bad PhDs, and worse. There are banal MDs and
JDs etc. A thousand decent horse trainers can all have
it wrong about a problem horse.

Those who trapped me are between far and vastly less
advantaged than I in terms of having had tangible impetus to
brain development in their lives. I am tempted to call it urbo
pervo. Hang an MD or JD or PhD on the wall and have
fun fluffing in officiators and thereapists and socialworker fans
of urbo pervo (assuming nothing sordid in the formative experiences
of the holders of MDs, JDs, PhDs). Clowns learn to use dress,
stance, voice. Mine is an unusual situation, and the suffering is
extreme. Its a demolition where not all the doers are dolts,
some are actually bad.

I am sunk without proper mentalhelp. I cannot think of a
different resource. My aversions to those of religion and
mere position were created by them. Take that as true for
the moment. What cat talents could be of use? Are there
other therapy metaphors?

There are aphorisms. Out of the frying-pan and into
the fire. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If you
cannot be good, be careful. Etc. Surely not everyone
is bamboozled. Or is it that fine brains do not go into
doing therapy? Apologies again for a sputtering start, but
there has to be some start.
