I learned very early on in my mental health journey that I am responsible, at some level, for every single thing I do whether it’s a symptom or not. That some of it isn’t acceptable, or scary, and that’s *my* problem and my thing to deal with. Mrs. Kerzner and friends would do well to learn this.

You cannot sustainably go through life making every unpleasant behavior you engage in for any reason someone else’s problem because you can’t help it. That’s rarely ultimately true. It’s called managing symptoms, and I do manage my symptoms contrary to popular belief. You *can* avoid heartache.

But you first must become responsible for your own behavior to have any kind of freedom.

In current circles of oppression, specialness, diversity, understanding, and compassion, all admirable things (except oppression), there lurk many who leap at the first opportunity to offload their health, wellbeing, and peace of mind on to others through guilt and shame.

I’ve observed this through 17 hospitalizations over 23 years, more than my detractors combined as far as I know. That’s a lot of special, vulnerable, rejected people (includingnarcissists and abusers). My observation is this type of thinking and behavior increases every year masquerading as normal.

They berate psychiatrists, nurses, clinicians, and therapists relentlessly, accusing them of everything nasty they can to get their way. They never really do, but they can sure act like they do. It’s *not* normal or acceptable.

I believe Mrs. Kerzner would be the first to say this in one of her videos *if* I, an evil sociopath shitting my bed, hadn't said it first:
"Fear isn't an excuse to behave abusively."
In fact, I'm sure she *has* said it, somewhere, but I'm not sure where…
yet.
