Family vs Isolation

When a person spends large amounts of time away from family and family activity, the psyche/subconscious begins to behave as though the person actually has no family. The outlook, esteem, and sense of normalcy erodes extremely quickly. A person can not function at optimum capacity because they are constantly in a state of subconscious mourning and loss. Little by little, things that used to matter stop mattering and life is a black hole of emptiness. And there seems to be no point or purpose in anything. There is no sense of being "rooted in the ground".
