This section explicates some of the reasons why we just can't stand to exist like this anymore and we're going to do something about it. You will not be able to silence us with your violence. We are not the crazy ones, you are. We've got nothing but healthy responses to a sick world.

|
- So, what are some things you'd like to destroy? (Don't worry about the how right now, just name what needs attacking!)
|
||
|
|
- What do you do with your anger? Where in your life do you feel like you can express it and where do you keep it hidden? Where do you direct it?
|
||
|
|
- Has safety ever felt attainable to you? When safety isn't an option, what do you try for instead?
|
||
|
|
- Have you ever experienced fighting back in a way that feels more healing than burnout-inducing? What strategies, tools, approaches, and relationships made it so? In an experience where that wasn't the case, what could have gone differently?
