# SCOTOMAVILLE 01.07 - Onion Peeling

Onion peeling taught as a full tool: trace a trigger by asking "What's the earliest age that I can remember feeling this feeling or having this experience?" Daniel warns against masking it with alcohol, gaming or food. It is the tool he later calls the most used in his kit.

> In the first section of *Leaving Scotomaville* I'm bringing to you a bunch of pieces — tools for your toolbox. (Daniel)
