Coffee With Dr. Kashey

Ep# 178: Ignore Ignore Ignore


Listen Later

In this episode Dr. Kashey discusses the two main types of frustration aversion: outright avoidance/aversion (like George Costanza's unemployment scheme on Seinfeld) and delay/procrastination. He then breaks down outright aversion into two further categories: "out of sight, out of mind" and "out of mind, out of sight." Using examples like chronic dieting struggles, Dr. Kashey explains how these distorted belief systems falsely assume that ignoring or avoiding problems will resolve them. However, this only perpetuates the frustration when reality conflicts with unrealistic expectations. He emphasizes the need to rectify these irrational beliefs rather than rely on restriction or avoidance. He discusses how blame and permission for lack of responsibility emerge from the frustration paradox when people abdicate resolving their issues to external factors.
