redeconstruction

there comes a point at which a breakdown occurs. it is not inherently unstable, traumatic, beneficial, detrimental, or optional.....but it is inevitable and irrevocable. the manner in which one perceives and experiences life, other people, feelings, thoughts, and one's own self are altered in ways that may not have been possible or imaginable previously. the outcome of such a break is determined in large part by the ability of the individual to cope with, adapt to, and internalize the changes occurring. this necessitates a significant investiture of time and mental space. the original constitution of the individual's attributes (mental, emotional, spiritual when applicable) determine to a large degree the various stages and processes as well as time gone through in this evolution.
