and must be properly experienced

I see.

Now that might all sound a bit out there but its the basis for western marketing

and still is

And what if you were abandoned by society?

well thats another construct

"society"

is just something you create like I said

it reflects you not anything else

Analytics psychology doesnt see humans as super rational

and thats okay

We aren't really.

I meant society as in the people you know and meet.

So if they were to abandon the person what would he do in that situation?

so everyone you know abandons you

well

we often engineer our own rejection

But,

society at the moment is primarily based around performance

and spectacle

So it can just be a case of not performing

or even undermining other peoples reality

Which can cause tremendous anxiety

I see.

Questioning peoples beliefs, especially a groups beliefs

Can be very unsettling

a good example of this is when you find yourself in a group sometimes

you might feel anxiety

General anxiety or just social anxiety?

But try and imagine it as the groups anxiety

Not yours

good group therapists often use this concept

well just anxiety i guess youd call it social

Ah ok.

Makes sense.

so an analytic therapy

would aim to erode defense mechanisms

that we've learnt to manage pain

but don't deal with it

and they can be hard to let go of

we all like to think we're special
