At this point I’m not too interested in reading abstracts outside of MIA, but I love surfing the headlines and intros you write, Kermit. It is my lived experience as a bipolar for 12 years that shame was a huge part of my illness. I appreciate the attention linked to this Adam-and-Eve-old concept.

shame and low self-esteem are definitely at the root of a lot of breakdowns and in my experience it is notoriously difficult to get rid of.
