>>> I'm glad that you found a model to overcome your troubles. But I think that resolving not to be dissatisfied is too simple for seriously depressed or serious mental illness. Severe mental illness can often go along with cognitive impairment. How would you teach someone to walk away from dissatisfaction if they cannot understand the concept?
<<< In another post at another board I addressed your very well said point. I see multi-generational dysfunction in multiple layers all around me. This doesn't confound me anymore. I connected the dots between "poor impulse control", "dysfunction", and "poor conflict resolution strategies", to make a model I copyrighted as "Coached Recovery Protocol ©".
Your point is exquisite that many are not ready for my level of recovery regimen. I am feverishly exploring a marketing strategy which will enlist therapists to help clients peal back those many layers, get on there feet, and allow my program to provide the last nudge into functionality, along with powerful tools that ensure there will be no relapse. It requires clarity, decisiveness, a "unified concept of self", along with four cornerstones of Love, Acceptance, Respect, and Responsibility.
My encouragement for all is simple. If I did it, anyone can do it. I hope it won't be as treacherous for them as it was for me. I hope they can do it sooner than I did, also.
>>> ...suicide...
<<< Teen suicide is the most troubling problem to me. Such a waste. Scott Peck in "People of the Lie" chpt 1, has related a very sad example for all to study.
I admit my statistics are ancient (from the mid 70's). My intentions were to discuss and study, never to hurt, show-up, deny, or otherwise minimize the other sharing about this very visceral topic.
>>> By the way, I'm curious about your closing line that I often see in your posts reiterating that that's just the way you are. I'm not sure what you mean by that.
<<< I have been sited for being heavy handed. I initially fell into my (male) trap of being "Mr Fixit". That "closing ditty" is my experiment at softening. If it irritates, let me know.
Lugubriously, Rod
(a real snazzy picture, Ehh?)PS: (Re:the subject line) Humans store information in a fifth dimensional array strategy, but we share it one word at a time, one right after the other. Sharing information sure takes toooo long!!! At the fifth dimension, there are shortcuts from thought to thought.
