The Psychology of Pistorius
Success guilt, success aggression and fear of retaliation by Dr Andrew Hodges
"How past trauma contributes greatly to his rageand self-sabotage. His early physical trauma played a crucial role in his inability to handle success and specifically in the shooting of his girlfriend. One thing is for sure: Oscar Pistorius feel-good story has changed forever. Never again will he be looked at the same way. He has taken a huge step down from the pedestal on which the world had placed him. Many of his supporters remain in massive denial. It is hard to give up a hero even to bad behavior."
