[QUOTE="Pack93z, post: 229733, member: 288"] Some people need to run away and hide from a tramatic event, I am not defending Javon, but instead saying, there are things in life that some people will run from. Maybe he can't stand the pain of facing the memories again, for years when I went past the spot of my accident, I would have flashes of memories. I was pinned under the truck, to this day once in a great moon I see those images of darkness, my flesh burning against the exhaust pipe, the flicker of light comming from the edges of my view. And that is 21 years ago. Maybe this is that Javon is still going through.. I can't imagine the pain he felt having a good friend die in your arms. And there is nothing he could have done at that point to change it. Grief is a funny thing, pain becomes overbearing at times, leaving you as a person to run from the very thought of the source of pain. Is it a shocker that he is turning to alcohol or drugs to mask the pain? Or staying away from things that will reinvite the pain to surface? Not really, again I am speculating, maybe this isn't the case with Javon, but it seems familar to me. I choose alcohol to numb the pain.. I choose to avoid high school football games because I couldn't play... I choose to run from events or situations that would remind me of the fact that I was what I was. Heck I even turned my back on friends because they reminded me of the accident. Personally, if this is what Javon is going through, it is understandable to a degree, however it probably is the wrong course of action. I never recovered until I faced the pain.. for me it was sitting at the accident scene letting the images paly over and over, accepting what happened, realizing that it couldn't be undone, committing to building upon what I had and expelling the fear. Javon has seemed to make bad choices to get himself into this position, however that doesn't make the pain any less real. In summary, again I am not defending Javon.. merely adding a alternate view on what might be happening inside Javon. Or maybe he just what he appears to be, immature and insensitive.. but I can't say because I don't know the man.. just hear the stories. [/QUOTE]
