This image represents the chaos and then the emptiness of The Void. In this state, a person's life and mind can initially feel out of control, chaotic, filled with so many feelings, so much emotion that it is often completely overwhelming leading one to then want to shut down through excessive sleep, inability to focus or participate in regular activities, desire to be alone hoping that will quiet the madness happening inside.

When a person survives The Void but doesn't actually heal the wounds that led to it, one option to survive in this world is to wear The Mask, create a persona, become someone on the outside who we don't feel like we are on the inside. Oftentimes people who wear masks are high achievers, perfectionists, successful in their professional lives, but their personal lives can be quite the opposite

Other hurting people pass along the pain they have experienced and stay stuck in anger or rage, surface level emotions to cover the deep pain that lies beneath. The level of anger or rage at any given time determines the intensity of the storm that is created in their lives and relationships.
