Mood in the Room

If you have a particular response pattern to certain issues, this does not mean other people will or should have similar response patterns as you. 

Antagonizing others because they do not respond to things the way you do can come off as unrealistic, selfish and maybe controlling!

It might be helpful to not taunt people! Especially not towards people who are struggling with certain issues. 

A particular issue may not be touchy, stressful or triggering to you, doesn't mean it isn't touchy and all of that to someone else. 

When you invalidate a persons feelings or their reality, it can be very insensitive and hurtful. 

When a person has been pressured or taunted to breaking point, a person might yell. Others might get others to yell at you for them, others might walk off unperturbed, while others might end up dangling at the end of a rope! 

Control over emotions is a great virtue. People are at different places on the journey to mastering it. 

Society sometimes expect people to “take it like a man”, but surely, not everyone has the same tolerance level. 

It might be helpful to be attentive to the mood in the room, and to be sensitive about what pressure points to exert pressure on, when and for how long.

Stimulus & Triggers

*A stimulus is anything that can create a response in you. A stimulus can tickle your senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell or of taste. 


*A trigger is a stimulus that elicits a certain feeling in you. A trigger is a stimulus that reminds you of an experience similar to what you might have had sometime in the past.

*So, triggers can come in the form of "what you see, what you hear, what you taste, smell or feel on your body". And an emotion is often a consequence that follows a triggering stimulus. 

*A trigger can stimulate a happy emotion in one person, a sad one in another, a mixed emotion or even no emotion at all if you cannot relate or are unwilling to engage the stimulus (indifference). 

*The question is, why would a singular event stimulate diverse emotional reactions among different persons experiencing it? 

Observations show that peculiar interpretation of situations has a role in the emotional outcome of such a situation. 


This fact can be observed in many aspects of life.

Sit with Yourself

A person can be more emotional than they are rational. Willingness to sit with your feelings is a great move. It starts with acknowledging how you are feeling. If you remain in denial about the feelings you're having, it may take longer to allow yourself resolve the issues and deal with them.


A person can also be more rational than they are emotional. Willingness to sit with your thoughts is a great move. Reviewing your thoughts in an honest way can be very helpful.


Acknowledging your state of mind and accepting to 'Do Something About It' might be the best decision to take this month.


Doing so in a confidential and non-judgmental space, under the guidance of professional support can be very productive.


Welcome.
