Relationships and Parenting
Many people find it difficult to be invested in relationships, to take a chance, or to be vulnerable. This combination of feelings is precious, yet it's very hard to accept.

Suicide
Suicide is driven by self-destructive thoughts which exist on a continuum. Each person is divided; a part wants to live, but part of each person is self-destructive.
-
Violence
Thoughts of being wronged or mistreated produce anger and an impulse to retaliate. When the adversary is demonized, the sense is that violence is justified.

Therapy and Theory
Much of Glendon's work is based on Separation Theory, the Fantasy Bond concept, and Voice Therapy methodology developed by Dr. Robert Firestone.
