I used to hate people and crowds. And I was as stubborn as you that I would never change - "that's just the way it is". Now I'm going to AA meetings and church meetings and look forward to them. Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined myself actually "liking people" as short as three months ago not to mention liking
gatherings of them. I was angry all the time. . . . I know the mention of AA and church probably makes you disgusted with me, and you're shaking your head right about now, but I just had to say it. You can't hate people and heal emotionally. Try trusting one human being. Just one.
