because the false self gets drowned and the real abusive self emerges..therapy is a better choice then getting drunk or high or mood altered ALSO.... if the person gets drunk, he doesnt realize how much power/strength he or she has. Then basically their nervous system goes numb, and they think they are 'on top of the world'! That is why they drive faster than usual, dance a little wacky, and have slurred speech, oh and they hit or swing at things. And when that feeling is gone (after they are sober or in the morning) they have a headache or they have a bloddy nose from the fight they had earlier that morning or last night. Hope this answers your question!

Why do women like violent men?

It is not accurate to generalize that all women like violent men. Some individuals may be drawn to perceived strength or power, while for others it may be due to past experiences or social conditioning. It is important to remember that everyone has their own unique preferences and reasons for attraction.


Do narcissists become violent?

Some narcissists may become violent, especially when they feel threatened, challenged, or criticized. Their lack of empathy and need for control can make them resort to aggressive or violent behavior to assert power or intimidate others. It's important to be cautious and seek help if you or someone you know is experiencing violence from a narcissist.


Why do criminals carry guns?

Some of them want to protect themselves from other criminals. Some of them want to have an advantage over the victim. Some of them want to be on even footing with the police. Some of them are just looking to kill someone. Some of them do it because all the cool criminals do it (peer pressure). Some of them do it because they steal the guns and sell them. Some of them do it because they feel it is a status symbol. Some of them want to intimidate others. There are almost as many reasons as there are criminals.


How to reduce violent behavior using cognitive dissonance theory?

The theory of cognitive dissonance is not sufficiently defined... but, may give insight into what an individuals experience is after an outburst of violent behavior. My interpretation likely exceeds it limits... A violent outburst is preceeded by an experience of vast disparity between a standard of reference held by the individual and something manifest in their reality -that flows to violent reaction well before the individual has much chance of considering anything. Consideration comes later as the behavior presences the individuals own contrasting beliefs... perhaps, a wide variety of them... and others. The process of relieving dissonance may include supporting their underlying standard of reference, attacking the contrasting standard exhibited in reality, rationalizing their behavior, appologizing for their behavior, promising never to repeat it, etc... however, while this may relieve their dissonance... the violent behavior is reset to occur again in the presence of similar stimulus. The last thing the individual wants evidenced is that they themselves have little or no control over their violent outburst. If they do distinguish the violent outburst as inappropriate and try to eliminate it - the methods that they use cannot work - because they do not understand the underlying principles - the more they try, the more they fail, the more their self esteem is diminished.... and the same behavior manifests. At some point the cycle of dissonance and relief around a behavior an individual seeks to change ends in resignation... and a declaration that the manifestation of the behavior is just "who they are". They become identified with and as the behavior. This is, of course, simply the result of ignorance of one's own function. For someone seriously interested in relieving violent behavior - there are a number of effective methods - other than pharmecuticals - the understanding of which is beyond the stage of development western psychology has achieved. www.americal.us

Why do you attract drunks?

Some men who are drunk lose their inhibitions (could be shy, but after a few drinks they have false courage.) Some men who are drunk are just a pain and feel they can say or do anything to any woman. If you hang out at bars or night clubs then you are much more apt to attract drunks. You could also be very attractive and drunk or not, some men will come onto you.
