Repeated attempts to master everything around, planning to the smallest detail.
Suddenly, an unexpected factor appears: Something escapes and comes out of thought!
Frustration and impotence, an anxiety that does not stop, thoughts are imposed and inside eat away.
A vicious circle of frustration, disappointment, despair and overflow is generated.
Fatigue, due to the excessive expenditure of psychic energy overwhelms, it seems that nothing adds up.
False belief of increasing the effort to channel the imagined course.
But that capricious external reality does not pay attention, life shakes again and again with a “new slap”.
“Loss is synonymous with getting lost?”
Overflows suffered and frustrations suffered, have as a consequence the disappearance of the sensation of “having everything under control”.
Pain when feeling that the world is collapsing and the outside becomes dangerous, due to the uncertainty of the unexpected. Increased intensity of doing, trying not to think about what makes you suffer.
But it doesn’t work, the ghost of super-control prevails.
It is important to take into account that something is missing and escapes is typical of the psychic constitution of the human being. The whole would be maddening.
“Will it be forbidden to enjoy?”
“Enjoyment seems like a thing of the distant past, the world has lost color.”
Faced with these difficult scenarios, anxiety is constantly triggered towards a “futurology”, which will only increase uncertainty and discomfort.
Paradox of going ahead in time looking for security and certaintiesto direct the present more effectively, mentally placing himself in a future that is uncertain in itself.
By constantly thinking about futuredoing will become a worry. But positioning himself in presentthe activities will be signified as Projects, appearing as possible desire and enjoyment.
“I have control, I have the power”
The fantasy of trying to “control everything” in the outside world will cause you to lose control of your own inner world..
Little by little, and if necessary in a psychological care space, it is healthy to open questions, disarming ghosts, questioning certainties and totalitarian fantasies.
It is expected that something is missing and can escape, it is human to make mistakes, being part of the growth to stumble to get back up.
