I'd think it takes a lot to come back from crazy. Shitloads of therapy or what?

A lot of introspection, growing self-awareness, therapy by proxy (learning about abuse, CPTSD), eating shit and facing consequences, etc. I grew up with a narcissist alcoholic abusive mother and an absent enabler father. I never actually had therapy, surprisingly. I'm sure I'll be down voted for this comment too. :)
