註釋Why are other people always out to hurt me? Why do they always leave? Why do I let myself become so upset with other people? Where do these feelings of anger come from? Why can't I just eat like normal people? Why do I drink until I do not know where I am? How can I escape the inside of my head? Why does my childhood seem to come back and bite me?

This is step one...
