Ivan's Fear of Humans -- Fear of social interaction leads to painful, tragic lives. There are effective treatments, but we can't do it alone. we need the help of other people. But we are afraid of people. So we wait, many years, until we are in so much pain that we go out into the world of humans, but often feeling not like one of them. But the sunlight begins to shine through every now and then. Gradually and in occasional lightening strokes illuminating the wistfully beautiful green humid ghost forest Inverness, we find hope and a little happiness.
