Ep# 175: When STFU Gets Weird
Manage episode 412175662 series 2948843
In this episode, Dr. Kashey explores how to apply the STFU approach not just to discrete frustrations but to address major chronic frustrations like overfatness. Minor frustrations will arise along the way, triggering urges to act impulsively and abandon constructive plans. However, Dr. Kashey explains why "going with your gut" feelings and urges perpetuate chronic frustration. Instead, persevering requires building frustration tolerance to act deliberately, even when it conflicts with impulses. He outlines how responses arise from thoughts and beliefs about frustrating stimuli. Adjusting these, rather than the stimuli themselves, allows more control. Drawing from personal and professional experiences, he highlights the pitfalls of acting impulsively and underscores the significance of frustration tolerance in overcoming chronic frustrations.
