I have my summit notebook, stored away in my "box of crazy"  underneath the stereo. You can peruse it if you want, next time you come over for absinthe or whatever the poison du jour happens to be. (I still have that bottle in the freezer, btw.) The notebook's certainly got some weird ass shit in it, yo, but most of it is just sad and pathetic.

Inculcated:
@T.A.C. Well as you know, I’m compelled to be a bit of a Pandora when signing for some boxes of crazy. Others of my own creation are disguised as subtle little accents throughout the décor at my place. I’d be very interested to see your Summit notes. We’ll definitely have to pick the right poison for that. The Absinthe preparation was tedious --as it involved such a prolonged upper body workout.

Re: The Funeral Hmmm, another interesting similarity...In Daytop we had a group where we had been asked to write and read aloud our own eulogy. We weren’t given much time to jot these down, let alone to prepare something considered. We also had to pass around a candle and blow it out in turns. I missed the point of the exorcise. Instead of writing the expected along the lines of condemnations disguised as sorrow (something like “Oh,if only she had acted as if instead of acting out blah-blah blah”) I did mine wrong. I wrote something real into expressing the probable sentiments of the “hypothetical” panegyrist’s true laments. That didn’t go over well.

Pillow Pounding   Students are separated into groups of 5 or 6. One at a time each student had to be up on their hands and knees with the rest of their group surrounding them in a circle. The rest of the group pushed down on their back while the student had to push to stay up. Then they placed a pillow in front of them and the student had to repeatedly "pound" the pillow.

I remember who put weight on my back 17 years later.  What are children supposed to do because they cannot split?  There were people so psychologically damaged (myself) before going to RMA, that I was susceptible to brainwashing.

TheIntegrity!:
The lifeboat experience was so disturbing! I wanted to tell the staff to go die. I wish i could go back to Monarch, since i am older now and let the staff know how I really feel  :twofinger: .     It sucks knowing that that the staff who ran these workshops have no trouble getting to sleep at night and view themselves as great people doing  the world a invaluable service. Tim Earle was the most egotistical bastard ever. He once force a kid in group to run in place and yell for 15 minutes in front of like 20 people. Of course, this isn't wrong because tim was just trying to help the poor kid " get into his feelings".

lifeboat:
It took me many years to understand their actions were wrong.
