20. “The self is made up of those intrinsic parts of our core mixed with memories and experiences all connected to one another to create one whole unique being. Unfortunately, when our sense of self shakes loose, the mental health system too often seeks not to help rebuild and rediscover the context that defines us, but to layer new meaning over it. This is not healing of the self. It is death. This must change. We must stop using our power over people, to push them in directions in which they would not have gone and reshape their very being in society’s image of who they should be. Instead, we must use our power under people, to help lift them up to self-discovery, and let any reshaping that goes on be their own.”
