Or is it just something fun to do on a Sunday? :P
Well, I don't advise anything to Steve as I know that any therapy would be productive only in case he is convinced it will help him/them. Also - it's rather doubtful that he would consider any advice from a complete stranger. (why should he?)

I try to figure out my motivation now - at least a conscious one Forgive me but my unconsciousness is still not fully available for me. So I think that I wanted to share my point of view with others, to add something to discussion - mostly because some people seemed shocked when I had only experience of adding one more proof to my hypothesis. I debated for some time about futility of using my knowledge in this case but at the same time I yielded to a powerful temptation... Out of compassion maybe?

when my explanation becomes so intricate I start to think that some unconscious motive played the important role. So, there is still some insight about this waiting out there for me probably...
