It can usefully become a topic of writing, for example, because in this way cognition--thinking--can be used to master and use the emotion. Many others have noted that it can be used as an entree into a discussion of what shelters are available, etc., and perhaps a fulcrum for group effort of a political nature. I mention these two areas because both are ways out of helplessness. Andrea
