I speculate that people find themselves over there for a variety of reasons and motivations, ranging from wanting citizenship to believing in the cause; many might not have even realized what would happen once there, and I imagine some of them must undergo a dramatic transformation once they get there, resulting in, perhaps, in: "What the h*** am I doing here!!!!! Why???" I'd certainly feel traumatized if that was me, there, changing my mind, seeing all the horrors, and then being forbidden to back out!
At the same time, I'm not judging anyone who is there- Phillipa, I hope your son stays safe and comes home safely. The situation must not be easy for you.
Also, now I'm curious- what percentage of the general population takes psychiatric medication anyway?
