RE: Addiction and the Dissolution of Triggers
Ya I get this, it speaks to the complexity of the problem also. I have some other thoughts that I am brewing, and have written about somewhat before. Basically we all have to justify our past, sort of explain it to ourselves, and when things happen that we cannot make sense of, and especially that don't rely jive with the reality that our peers subscribe to we output sort of an "error". This locks us in a sort of purgatory. This is one reason I think group therapy with other addicts with similar problems would be helpful. Most people can't relate to this kind of problem, and this creates a barrier to fitting in socially. Trauma, in many forms does this, since even if we are familiar with trauma, we each try to forget it in order to normalize ourselves in our daily lives.
Thx for commenting!
i have found that by learning the Trivium method, i was able to clear up much of the contradiction that allows me clear sight when trying to find error and deceit. eliminating the purgatory of confusion or cognitive dissonance. when people disagree with the logical outcome of the processed facts then there is an error or a deceit. one of us is mistaken or not being truthful, sometimes with ourselves. sticking to the process forces the truth out. trauma or no. thank you.
I checked it out. You might find something equally as valuable in what Bruce Lee taught as an extension of Jiddu Krishnamurti. Difficult at first to accept, but approaching life with no centre, no method. I have written about this, some on steemit. Cheers!
