【4】When Rabbit Howls by Truddi Chase
Frank Putnam(フランク・パトナム)
When Putnam was researching schizophrenia, he discovered that the
term didn't fit all the patients he encountered. That led him to research the multiple
personality cases recorded since the early 1800s. His final documented conclusion was
that ninety-eight percent of the multiples on record involved repeated and severe
incidents of child sexual and physical abuse. Incest seems to head the list, culprit-wise.
For better or for worse, multiplicity may not be as rare as we think--only misdiagnosed.
"Sometimes," he said cautiously, "when we don't feel worthy, we can't give or receive
anything. To someone laboring under a feeling of low self-esteem, love is completely
unrecognizable and therefore unattainable."
