>Say I had really achieved a superior feeling because of a mere theory like this, and what if I were suicidal too. That would have been serious breakdown buddy, so you better watch your remarks a little more before you dispense them. Even if >they were true, but that would just make it >worse…
The test of your theory Phill5 is not what I or you think about it but whether it works. Personally, though it's kinda interesting and there are some grains of truth in it, IMHO, however I believe you are painting with a pretty broad brush which ignores more than it contributes and I do believe it is an attempt to put down those who are functioning well, by justifying attitudes and behaviour that do not fit the norm and are hence dysfunctional in the society in which we live.
And though that may provide some solace for you, I personally don't believe it's a healthy outlook, which will serve you, me or anyone else other than in remaining in a resist, resent, revenge mode. If my very minor questioning of your core argument is upsetting to you I'm sorry that you choose to interpret it that way. If you were suicidal and my comments were interpreted in such a way to further any such obsessing, that would be unfortunate.
