Clinical Depression Research Findings and Our Latest TheoriesAnd Now The Bible Verse of The Day
We are proud to announce a new theory that may explain the beginnings of depression in both Abuse Models and Imbalanced Thinking Models of Depression. Abuse models begin with experience based thoughts and emotional pattern changes, whereas Imbalanced Thinking Models originate out of medical, biological, and purely psychological differences. Clinical Depression and The Common Point While the two points of origination are vastly different, we have recently discovered they all have one very important point in common, and that point may be the key to all healing and in most cases accelerated recovery. There is a common crossroad that both the abuse model and the imbalanced thinking model share, and that is what we know to be critical trigger points in perspective. Clinical Depression Switch Thresholds We have known for some time that our minds have natural views, and if a series of similar reinforcing experiences happens, it will trigger specific outlook changes and emotional postures will result. Our minds have thresholds in perspective, and cumulative experiences trip certain switches in our mind to begin to see a different perspective, make a change in association, and make a certain emotion as a result. Clinical Depression The Silent Killers to Therapy Our minds have these switches in them, and once thrown, will default us to perceive our world in different degrees of emotion, and through changed emotional outlooks. We have long theorized that child molesters, sex offenders and those prone to sexual addictions will see others of the opposite sex as sexual in nature, and see social relationships in general based on sexual attractiveness or in some otherwise sexual capacity. This all encompassing viewpoint includes children and those of their own sex, even when they are not given to a homosexual perspective by nature. We have theorized that when a certain threshold of abuse, neglect or physical violation occurs to a person, two things, not just one thing happens: First they must deal with pain, anger and suffering to gain their sense of personhood back. Not only this, but secondly something much deeper and less understood takes place also. Once a limit of experiencing helplessness and suffering has been crossed, it triggers switches in the brain to forever make the victim see and feel in a non intimate, hostile and sexual context the rest of their life, even when the unresolved anger has been addressed later in therapy. The Logical and Emotional Mind and The Reptilian Brain That would explain the mysterious failure rate of sex offenders at recovery, and why they may demonstrate otherwise healthy and safe behaviors indicating addressed issues in therapy, yet return to sexual abuse and sex crimes later. It is because certain switches on perspective have been thrown and not returned to the healthy mindset of what we would call our 'Original Mind.' We used the example of triggers inside the brain of criminals because it is easy to understand. We believe the same thing happens in the minds of those with long standing emotional problems of depression, anxiety, and stress likewise, but in a slightly different way. We further believe that we can retrace our lives with relaxation techniques and hypnosis and unclick those switches by reliving those times and processing those events now as adults. Clinical Depression Resetting These Switches Magnify Therapy This is a distinctly different and additional approach than just embracing our unfelt emotions and processing them and moving on. Even with all old emotions felt and expressed, we may still have our switches thrown to make us to feel depression, anxiety, stress or to sexually abuse others, or some other damaging behavior.
