Dr. Joel Dvoskin on mass homicide: Despair, not mental illness, is the enemy [3 min -- Hogg Foundation for Mental Health]

This is exactly what I have always thought.  When I was a teenager --- I was full of rage at all of society especially after I lost my sister and brother and the head of the foster home she was in said to me not to call her ever because she had a new family. 

I had so much rage inside but it was about the lack of care from this society.  The rage I felt was internalized was a suicidal rage that I had to fight not to kill myself but I would also sit and ponder --- if my rage were in the wrong body, the wrong person ---- someone so angry at society and willing to kill others....

I have always thought that this disaffected rage is what causes mass killings....

Most of us commit suicide instead.

A few kill others.

So just another reason to care about others and become #traumainformed
