Similar:
refusal -- my refusal to take responsibility for you or your actions.
I try to provide accurate information and ideas to consider in your own journey,
but mostly, this is a blog about stuff going on in my head. Consider it fiction.
denial -- I'm not certain I know who I am or what I am doing much of the time — what makes
you think I am qualified or capable of providing formal medical instruction?
disassociation -- ah.... dissociation... no, I don't mean detachment from one's body or mental processes —
as in depersonalization/derealization — no, I mean that I don't know you.
I don't necessarily know "guest posters" either.
I am not claiming to be a part of any particular group, nor do my views expressed here
represent anyone else's. I don't represent any views other than my own, and the views of
