They're all the same things: attempts to avoid disappearance, or nothingness, or chaos.” IfsKnowsWayKindCharacterFormLosesIdentityExpressionFitDrugDepressionBehaviorAnxietyUniqueAddChaosAddictionIllnessVariousMythNothingnessPlagueAlcoholismAnorexiaDrug AddictionDrug AddictDisappearanceBulimiaHeredity Author:Tim Lott
