i think identity is really about how one relates to others, what one's place in society is. (which might make combat type PTSD different and not quite as related to other mood/anxiety disorders, now that i think about it.) security in an acceptable (to oneself, not necessarily to others) social role is very important...


Courtney - i think focusing on brain may not be helpful directly...the sort of things that are good would just be habituating the brain into good activities, and maintaining good health. the brain is adatable, but in some ways we don't have real control over it, we just have to put it in a healthy environment.
