Slighted

again

Flaws brought to light

again

I am a living, breathing antithesis-stress theory

Give me

innate despair

Give me

environmental distress

Watch me

break apart

I rip in two

and rip into two more

Exponential misery

    I rip in two/and rip into two more/Expontential misery

    Painful imagery.

    A quick search brought me to, “The antithesis position is often in avoidance of the advantages of the former status quo and focuses on the newly evolved truths that are being excluded in the original system.” Is this what you reference?

  2. Well, the antithesis-stress model of mental illness in a nutshell suggests that biological components of disorders are the basis for mental illness but are further exacerbated by environmental stress. It is an old-school model, though, and may go by a different name now.
