An interesting, and somewhat dangerous thing about the nature of stress and anxiety. Dangerous because stress can cloud clear thinking and decision making, and long term, it’s not good for our physical health, either. http://www.thelastsymptom.com Join our online community at thelastsymptom.locals.com, or download the Locals.com app from the App Store and search for The Last Symptom by Brian Barnett. #stress #anxiety #emotionalhealth #cure #completerecovery #thelastsymptom #brianbarnett

Anxiety, stress, migraine headaches, and emotional health. Families pass on many things that are not at all genetic in nature. Attitudes are one of these things, and attitudes just happens to be at the very root of, and the cause of, emotional disorders. http://www.thelastsymptom.com Join our online community at thelastsymptom.locals.com, or download the Locals.com app from the App Store and search for The Last Symptom by Brian Barnett. #hereditary #genetics #anxiety #stress #migraineheadaches #families #emotionalhealth #emotionaldisorders #cure #completerecovery #thelastsymptom #brianbarnett

What causes children to develop emotional disorders? The education they receive from observing their parents ATTITUDES. What causes us to pass emotional disorders on to our own children? Our ATTITUDES. What is at the root of abusive behaviors, inappropriate tempers, selfishness, impatience, unhealthy relationships? ATTITUDES. What is the cure for emotional disorders? Identifying and correcting inaccurate, unhealthy ATTITUDES. What must be studied and understood in order to go from emotional unhealth to emotional health? ATTITUDES. If I say I love puppies, but I’m always abusing puppies, which thing reflects more truth? My words, or the ATTITUDES allowing me to abuse puppies? If our parents say they love us, but they abuse us, treat us like inanimate property, and show complete disregard for our feelings, which thing reflects more truth? Their words, or their ATTITUDES? To truly understand another person, what must you try to observe and understand? His or her ATTITUDES. http://www.thelastsymptom.com Join our online community at thelastsymptom.locals.com, or download the Locals.com app from the App Store and search for The Last Symptom by Brian Barnett. #attitudes #answers #relationships #children #parents #emotionaldisorders #education #abuse #cure #completerecovery #thelastsymptom #brianbarnett

This remains one of the most important episodes I’ve recorded. An analysis of a real-life example of many catastrophic effects that naturally result when we, as people, misunderstand the nature of value. There are in fact two Value Systems, or Types: The Commercial Value System and the Inherent Value System. Tragedy results when people are raised only understanding the nature of the Commercial Value Type, because they apply it to themselves, which is inappropriate and only leads to depression, hollowness, and sometimes death, as it did in this case involving Cheslie Kryst, a Miss USA beauty pageant winner and television host. http://www.thelastsymptom.com Join our online community at thelastsymptom.locals.com, or download the Locals.com app from the App Store and search for The Last Symptom by Brian Barnett. #selfworth #emptiness #deadly #hollow #missusa #CheslieKryst #beautypageant #tragedy #accomplishments #value #emotionalhealth #emotionaldisorder #meaning #purpose #cure #completerecovery #thelastsymptom #brianbarnett

Internal Vs. External, Inherent Value Vs. Commercial Value: The one you subconsciously or unconsciously apply to people in order to determine how human worth is measured can naturally lead to incredibly-positive emotional health, or crippling, unrecognized emotional weakness and sickness. http://www.thelastsymptom.com Join our online community at thelastsymptom.locals.com, or download the Locals.com app from the App Store and search for The Last Symptom by Brian Barnett. #selfworth #crippling #humanvalue #emotionalhealth #society #inherentvalue #commercialvalue #sickness #weakness #depression #feelinghollow #emptiness #cure #completerecovery #thelastsymptom #brianbarnett

Some very personal, and personable stuff. Distinguishing between getting an opinion, and getting information from somebody who has knowledge and recognition of a non-subjective reality. The emotional effect of finally being heard. Why it's ok for you to get nervous when you talk to me for the first time. My star-struck experience with a woodcraft survival guy.

Emotional health depends on making accurate and purposeful distinctions between things of different natures, even when we might not be inclined to want to do so. Distinguishing between things we do, and who and what we are, as well as being ready to do this for others. Many things in life are devoid of value, but this is never true for people themselves. Was Bob Saget funny? Distinguishing things as opinions can help you achieve and maintain inner peace. How to hate while at the same time loving.

There is no such thing as some people’s emotions being more ‘stable’ or less ‘stable’ than other people. That is a blatant lie. There is no such thing as people being able to ‘regulate’ or control their emotions. That also is a blatant lie. Both suggest that your feelings are malfunctioning and that you are defective, which are just more lies. The very name Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder is a lie that will actively prevent millions from ever escaping their emotional disorder authentically and permanently. http://www.thelastsymptom.com Join our online community at thelastsymptom.locals.com, or download the Locals.com app from the App Store and search for The Last Symptom by Brian Barnett. #unstable #regulated #feelings #emotions #controllingfeelings #incompetent #professionalcommunity #psychologists #therapists #psychiatrists #emotionaldisorders #emotionalhealth #emotionallyunstablepersonalitydisorder #eupd #borderlinepersonalitydisorder #bpd #cure #completerecovery #thelastsymptom #brianbarnett

Two categories to divide problems and solutions into: Tangible/Physical and Intangible/Emotional. (Intangible/Spiritual is another, but not discussed in this episode.) The natures (plural) of DEPRESSION. Predetermined conclusions and AUTISM. Not confusing symptoms as problems. A proper perspective of the value of recognizing one’s own CAPACITIES. Not inappropriately assuming responsibility for things only other people are responsible for, such as their personal opinions, or the ways they feel about, or choose to react to any given thing. Making flat black & white statements about things that are purely subjective and matters of opinion.

Nobody wants to burn away time, attention, and energy while getting nothing back for it in return. But unhealthily, we sometimes do this as an unconscious, or subconscious avoidance technique.

A huge shift in perspective during my authentic and permanent recovery from Borderline Personality Disorder was embracing the fact that I am a normal person and all that means.
