I remember being a young father and having thoughts of harming the child. They were scary not because they were "real" in the sense that I would act on them; but in the sense that they appeared even though I knew they were products of "only" stress and fatigue, two conditions that seemed so secondary, compared to being in charge of keeping a person alive.

Ah at 15 mins you discuss this point - so the difference between problematic and not as problematic may be in the fear of the thinker about whether the thought may lead to action... interesting

I appreciate this video. Acceptance and commitment therapy has made such a difference with my OCD. Acceptance and self compassion are so important. 16 year old me would have greatly benefited from stumbling across this video. Thanks for putting this information out there in such a causal and easy to understand way!

I wish when I was in therapy I found someone who understands/explores consciousness as you do (the analogies to eastern philosophy here are yuuuge!) and other relevant lenses for actually therapizing someone like me... such an actually holistic approach... Whoever’s in ya practice as a patient’s a fortunate patient!

Really amazing dive into this difficult topic!!! The stats about mothers "thinking" about harming their newborns is heartbreaking. Honestly, it gives me the impression of OCD. I know 90% of mothers don't actually have OCD, but the reaction is very similar. Basically, *not wanting* to think something so badly that you actually think about it anyway, like hurting your child. And then the self-fulfilling prophecy of considering yourself a bad person for thinking about it, as if thoughts can be sins.

Super interesting juxtaposition between mindfulness here - absence of judgement, acceptance of circumstances, etc.; and an article today in the guardian about how large corporations pay mindfulness consultants to... reduce the employees judgement (of their low wages and shitte treatment) and increase their acceptance of their curcumstances (those circumstances being easily improved by the employer, if they chose to do so).

I prefer the word condition to disorder. Condition is a neutral term. It's just the way you are it's not bad or good it just is. But disorder sounds like something that is broken and needs to be fixed. You may want/need to change certain things about your behaviour but that doesn't mean you are naturally bad. It just means you are a human being.

Fuck yeah. I will have better feedback later when I can sit down but this a good video. Buddhist theory is fascinating, it has revolutionized my relationship with my brain.
