Painting, by artist Kate Caputo, is titled, “The Woman", she had a vision of Mary cradling and covering a suffering sister, read more HERE
Like Corpse, hyper violence with cute cartoons !
Ironically, just last week I joked with a girl about being chained to the toilet as a child, “Ah, my nanny, ol’ chainy, I miss her…”
Gen Z is the first to experience the full consequences of WW1 and the industrial revolution destroying multi-generational families and communal living, now our primitive brain tells us we live in a world where our tribe has been decimated, and without it, as outcasts we will surly die…
So, what can we do ? 5 things.
1) Divine Recollection
Make friends with the Divine Mother. An archetype in Jungian psychology, a goddess in religions, and the Virgin Mary in Christianity.
Dr. Donald Kalsched in his book, “The Inner World of Trauma,” writes about a young woman who was abused by her father every Sunday when her mother went to church. The woman endured this sexual abuse for a long period of time. To get through it she used to have an out of body experience, so she could separate herself from the trauma to survive. In therapy one day Kalsched asks her, “I wonder where you went during that time.” She burst out in tears and exclaimed, “I was in the arms of Mother Mary!”
She holds our shattered self, while we go about our daily life. We are “dispirited” and are never really incarnated in our body to exist authentically with other people in real life, we cannot connect to them. But, if we can have a numinous experience with the Divine Mother, she can secure our attachment.

2) Make friends with your demons.
Truth is they are trying to protect you from being triggered of the original abandonment, to 'kill' outer relations in an effort to prevent further trauma
Say, perfectionism. This defense will not allow you to be loved until you are perfect. So…thank it, dialogue with it, tell it you no longer need it.
For Depth psychology most of us are living with trauma, it happens when the pain caused by insecure attachment in childhood - from divorce, a BPD mother, an absent father, neglect, or actual abuse - causes a split.
Demons, or complexes, rise up to protect the injured child, they provide defenses to keep the child safe from experiencing that sense of abandonment again.
Hence, one part of the personality matures quickly, perhaps a world weary street wise personality, or a precocious autistic-like intelligence, and one part remains a child.
Hollywood and entertainment is pushing this and normalizing this.
Look at all the toughest guys, rappers and rock stars and e-girls, or autists, and their love for anime.

All the big tik-tok stars on the one hand talking about killing a bitch, on the other being a cartoon character.

Or Freddie Dread with more evil devil girls
Or DeadPool - an 8 yr old boy in a violent man’s body, joking about being molested by uncles, competing with his girlfriends trauma of being sexual molested by multiple family members. All good fun and normalized.

3) Be loved.
One needs to be loved *first, in order to love, despite common wisdom. A challenge, because we often run away, throw up defenses, act aggressive - and the other person must put up with it until we are assured they will not leave us and we can finally feel safe enough to accept their love.
For many, this will only happen with a therapist. So get one.
4) Forget all that and find your purpose. Ask what your soul wants from you, and own it. Of course, you will also need the opportunity and power to carry out that purpose.
5) If all else fails, resign yourself to living in trauma world, your soul exists in hell. However, you can help others, articulate their condition, hear them when they speak without judgment or the silly evasions of "but you have so much to live for !" BS.
