Overview
July 2, 2012After having a spinal fusion I found it necessary to have massage therapy. Because of my background, explained later in the book, in which there was very little touching, it was a new experience for me to feel the soothing touch of a masseuse. Part One describes the beginning of a recent pathological relationship which eventually and unknowingly helped resolve my abandonment symptoms. The story tells the incidents leading up to my involvement with a lady who eventually almost killed me.
Part Two goes back in time to when I was abandoned at birth and continues up to the time of Part one. It tells of childhood incidents which caused me to have the Abandoned Child Syndrome. The ending of Part Two concludes with my resolution.
Because of what happened recently, I realized that as a child I had symptoms of what we call today the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Those same symptoms recurred recently, but I was so caught up in things that were going on, and I was so angry that I didn’t recognize I was having similar symptoms. It finally dawned on me that the then and now were the same PTSD, although it was not a diagnostic entity when I was a child.
The ending of Part Two links back to the ending of Part One, where I find the explanations and the resolution, including resolving my anger. I was helped by a quotation from a Holocaust survivor.
