recalling my mobster mate Mike

Sitting down with Mike in his man cave basement having a chat about what the load that I just carried was all about.

He was fine with my asking and just said if it doesn't suit you Oz thats fine I have lots of other work for a good driver and I think you are a "pretty good" driver for an Aussie. I have plenty of guys who want to get on that run if you don't want it. I had wanted it until I met someone at the pick-up point.

I had a guy introduce himself by asking if I was driving that black rig while he nodded toward my truck and trailer at a Husky roadhouse where I had just hooked up the trailer. I was to drive it up through British Columbia to White Horse in the Yukon with another load of insulated aluminium cladding all closed in in a pantec type trailer that was hooked up to a black with silver striping long nosed Kenworth with an 18 speed with 9/11 rear ends to help it go quickly. It could go fast if the road and load was kind to you; it wasn't heavy at around 15 tons. Usually takes around 10 days to get back to Prince George BC where I had started off from.

There is a bit of lost time and a few snippets of recall about some of my time in British Columbia.

After doing a Medico/Legal examination and finding a way to read in detail more about myself while adding to that a diagnosis of DiD. Dissociative Identity Disorder otherwise specified according to a DSM diagnosis.

The DSM is loosely defined as setting the course for public mental health treatment models due to its regular required use as a measure in the legal, justice, political and business worlds. Australia has traditionally adopted the DSM as its de-facto Mental Health guide book.

I look at the history of the Americam Psychiactry Association and I ask myself how this organisation responded to the realization that being gay was not a medical disease When Gay Was Not Okay with the APA which begins with "While homosexuals have historically experienced many different forms and types of intolerance, perhaps some of the most harmful discrimination in recent decades can be said to have come from mental health and medical professionals. These professionals have labeled homosexuals as abnormal, pathological, and deviant. In the 1950s, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) made this discrimination against homosexuals official when it classified homosexuality as a mental disorder."

My mother had her views on gay people and their need for inclusion as a Human Right. She didn't discriminate in that way, which is very different than the usual cultural Catholic. She wasn't culturally Catholic in that sense.

There was a Yea. Gift which was a running race with a worthy prize; I believe it had its origins back into the gold days or that was one of the legends I had heard at one time. My grandfather trained a promising athlete and was well known for his support of Aboriginal people; as well he was well known and active in the Ballarat and wider Chinese communities. The Stawell Gift was the supreme running race of this kind at that time.

My mother was 28 years of age when I was born, until she was 16 or so she went with her dad when he gave talks at Libraries and other places across much pf Victoria.

We have come a long way since childhood and we brought some and encountered much baggage in those times.

One such piece of baggage was an experience of a policeman in full uniform who had just come from interviewing a young person who had said they had been raped by a Catholic priest. His first place to contact was to his immediate superior in the secretive papal Knights of the Southern Cross fraternity who was the then editor of the local weekly newspaper where I had an apprenticeship for a few years.

That policeman broke my nose again and broke my teeth when I asked if the numbers he was referring to included my sister? This sent him into a rage of sorts where he was threatening and he was violent toward me. That was the last day I worked at the Yea Chronicle.

When a few years later in another country where I am being 'listened to' and advised to get myself good obedient Catholic woman and pay her priest often with much money as that was the best guarantee that was available in those times

Hmm. And they've never really acknowledged the flaw in a system, they just updated the second thing. I shifted stuff that the fits not, not a good system, it's not a good system. And that's our first line of mental health here in Australia, right? And and that's the doorway to the medication model or whatever name it is given. Te fact is that it is a very his and miss model and has long-term side effects and withdrawal effects that can be every bit as damaging as the original complaint.

Probably, it's a cheap model to run.

However, the suits maybe half of the population and suits might be a word that you'd want to discuss as well, but everybody gets to go through that. And for me. Then I get to look and see where I've gone with mine and I know what I benefited me in my childhood. Things that stood me, well.

The medication model that comes as the result of the diagnostic model there. That in my view has perpetrated a similarly injustice toward those of us sexually abused as children and in the area of PTSD and complex PTSD.

PTSD is a single event while complex is multiple or consecutive events bringing that complexity yet it still is not in the DSM and that leads to many questions as to why something based on evidence is so difficult to include in a supposedly evidence based manual that governments across the globe rely on

The fact that the DSM is used as a diagnostic and as a statistical so-called manual, the fact that it is used as a guide. The fact that it is a requirement in any legal action in our court systems should be enough to warrant a deeper look at those affected.

Mike's advice there, the more money, you pay your wife's priest, the good Catholic girls. She's a good Catholic girl. She has been trained to never question your authority. What do you do for a business is your business? And nothing to do with her?

The job is to do what she's told to do like when when might goes to reasons we never had regular Friday night meals, he would pay the drivers got free drug and a meal at the McDonald's hotel, which is a student. I don't know if Australian style but it was it was a reason we seated but reasonably busy place.

And and they had strippers and dances there and they were always rumours that girls were doing tricks on the side. They're but there was a constant supply of them Mike was there and there as always was two thirds past it and I'm there, he comes and gets me and says, take that Lincoln and don tell Gloria I need 30.
