Revenge Is Not in Evidence Based Practice
Revenge is only useful if you're in an actual mob type situation where somebody like betrays your trust. In reality, we long for an opportunity to hurt that person the way they hurt one am to feel. So it's power play. That's useful if you want to be in a dominant, controlling, pretty vicious position socially. It doesn't provide that physiologically. What will we have to do instead? We can do it in our imagination. We can talk about it with our friends. We can take that energy, that rage and the sadness, and purge it in all kinds of different ways.
