| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the podcast. My name is Joseph Clough, and today we're talking about the subject of are you addicted to your issue and your struggle. Now, I don't mean that in a bad way, okay? It is an unconscious |
| 0:24.9 | process. I don't think you would consciously choose to feel anxiety. I don't think you would |
| 0:31.5 | consciously feel and choose to have a fear or a phobia or esteem issues or anything like that. |
| 0:38.7 | But sometimes we can unconsciously get addicted to the issue. |
| 0:45.0 | And we're going to break it down probably in a couple of ways. |
| 0:47.3 | Now the first way is the most simplistic way of making sense of it. And that is, your unconscious mind keeps issues for what I would |
| 1:00.4 | call a secondary gain, right? A secondary gain. What is a secondary gain? Well, your unconscious |
| 1:07.6 | mind is getting something by remaining the same. |
| 1:12.8 | As an example, let's just say there's someone who, let's go for, |
| 1:20.7 | they haven't got a job and therefore they don't have the income. |
| 1:24.9 | And maybe because they're depressed or whatever it is, right? |
| 1:29.0 | They get assistance maybe from the government. They may get assistance maybe from their friends and |
| 1:34.4 | their family. They may get more support emotionally from their friends and their family. |
| 1:41.2 | And maybe it is easier because they're not having to work and they're getting this support. |
| 1:49.3 | Now, couldn't it be easy to see that maybe the unconscious mind is thinking, well, I get love from |
| 1:56.4 | my family when I have this issue. I get moral support when I have this issue. People come around to |
| 2:03.6 | help me. People give me money or the government gives me money or my unconscious mind might go, |
| 2:10.4 | well, I don't have to work that hard job if I keep the issue. So your own unconscious mind may be starting to get addicted to keeping |
| 2:22.3 | the issue because we have these positive aspects. Now you may go, well, Joseph, they're not positive |
| 2:29.3 | because I'm in pain and feeling depression or anxiety or chronic fatigue or migraines or whatever it is as an issue, |
| 2:37.8 | of course it's not good. But we're not thinking about the result. We're talking about the intent, |
| 2:46.2 | the intention behind keeping it, which in this case, that example would be failing love and support |
