I've been a substance abuse counselor for years and I might be able to provide some guidance, but you need to clarify what you mean by "recently". The most important factor here is how long this has been going on, and the answer is very different if it's a couple weeks vs 6 months. If you comment on my question, I'll try to get back and help some.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
