About the Series on Narcissism | Clarissa's Blog
In my case, I believe my father, anyway, was genuinely suffering from sadness and pain. I always try to bring up the point that there is such a thing as suffering from history. I don't mean monumental or "historic" suffering but actually directly derived from history (as well as the personal choices and other stuff relating to personality disorders that we can add to this baggage).
In this sense there was definitely a lot of suffering going on there that could be appreciated. If you had to hit the ground running, without time to mourn you loss of country and place, you are going to end up as some pretty screwed up dude.
