I like to always be right but can admit that I'm wrong but it's hard. I mostly seem to have trouble admitting I'm wrong when someone is forcing it down my throat and dancing around because they are right or to my mother. Create my own reality. That I am not self aware. The identity they present to the world, and often to themselves, is a facade.
Abusers tend to have little or no clue that they have a problem.
I don't believe this about myself at all. I know who I am, where I am and that I have problems that need to be dealt with. I agree with your article enough about myself to write you this e-mail. So, all verbal abuse could be considered a level 10 on your own individual basis I guess. I haven't read your article on the guy who heals his need to verbally abuse but I will do that now.
