Philip Seymour Hoffman...Secrets of Addiction

Life is about relationships… the resolved and unresolved.

I was saddened to learn of Philip Seymour Hoffman’s fatal overdose. What lingered in this gifted actor's subconscious that sprung such a massive yearning? Was there a secret that haunted his sensitive being? I was unable to find a sample of his handwriting to glean an answer that may help his children and others. My hope is that my Column will find someone who has his autograph... a note...a card...a letter.

Hoffman's affliction reminds me of a recent Oscar nominated movie, ‘August Osage County.’ This movie is a vivid depiction of what can happen to people caught in a web of unresolved early relationships and secrets.

Unresolved relationships hurt the individual. Avoidance and indifference only prolong the suffering. It’s those unresolved issues that torment our souls and affect those we love. They get buried in our subconscious, induce calamity and smother our innate beauty.

What about secrets? 
Secrets can never be safely tucked away. 
They infiltrate the atmosphere. 
Everyone feels the secret’s camouflage.

Yes… We all feel those transgressions that get buried in our subconscious. The actions and attitudes we resort to in order to survive differ with the individual. In the movie, Meryl Streep engaged prescription drugs to ease her pain. Her husband, Sam Shephard resorted to alcoholism and then something else. Their children were stuck in a puzzling abyss that stifled their lives. 

All because they shifted the focus from the truth! 
Can’t shift the focus. 
Gotta confront and reconcile the truth before it perpetuates more devastation.

I discuss all this in my book, 'Coffee with the Subconscious.' Most people don’t know how or where to look. Graphology provides an objective blueprint.

In the movie, after much physical and debilitating conflict…Julia Roberts found inner peace when the truth was revealed. This subconscious insight enabled her to reconcile her marriage and her child.

Relationships are easier when we feel good about ourselves. 

In real life I found an easier way... People’s handwriting offers insight for subconscious resolve.

Social Anxiety Remedy...

Life's about relationships...the resolved and unresolved.

 Gina, 42 years old, tearfully expressed...
      'I have extreme social anxiety
       I'm always concerned what other people think about me.
       I act a certain way so people will accept me.'

I saw in Gina's handwriting and tree drawing that she was afraid to express her thoughts. She was concealing something.  Her perspective was too narrowly focused.  There is evidence of a highly troublesome experience that happened when she was 16 years old. It lingers unresolved in her subconscious.  

At first, Gina couldn't think of anything in particular that happened when she was 16 years old.
We discussed more...

Her handwriting revealed that she was uncertain of her own value and that her character needed to understand in order to feel comfortable.
   
       'I was quiet as a child...
        My teachers coaches and friends would always say...
        You're SSSSoooo quiet what's wrong?'

Gina considered her self to be happy....
But her handwriting showed that her active mind was sad and tired...
In a constant fight against depression and headaches.

Gina became more reflective...

She met her first husband when she was 16.
She was head over heals in love...
She had a good time.

Her parent's were very negative toward her...
        'Nothing was ever good enough...
        Everyone was telling me how quiet I am.
        I HATE that stigma!'

Gina has an inquisitive deep sensitive mind.
Why is Gina SSSsooo focused on being accepted by her family and friends?
What continues to torment her subconscious that happened 16 years ago?

Gotta take a look at the handwriting and trees of those important relationships in her life for insight.
Gina is having her parent's provide a handwriting sample and tree drawing.
She is gathering samples of her first husband's handwriting...
Her current husband's as well.

Will Gina find clarity to resolve her social anxiety?
Stay tuned...

You Deserve a Great Relationship...
