Finding answers in difficult times is therapeutic

Since we were little, we have established an inseparable relationship with words. We use words to tell stories, exchange views, classify objects, find answers, and shape and content our internal dialogue (which appears in series and movies represented by a demon and an angel).

We all remember a typical scene from the movies, when a character has to decide what to do, and the angel and the devil begin to exchange arguments about what is right and what is wrong.

  • In our minds.
  • In addition to working with language in this way.
  • We can use it to invent stories.
  • Because reality usually comes in the form of clues.
  • As if we were detectives.
  • And we are the ones who have to complete the puzzle.

It’s seven o’clock and the alarm goes off like every morning, wakes up, turns around and waits for it to ring again in five minutes, but what’s better: have a quiet breakfast or five minutes’ rest?

During these five minutes, think about everything you have to do that day and find a moment of peace. The alarm sounds again and rises quickly; activates autopilot and starts with one routine task after another.

She wakes up on the subway, when a terrible explosion blows her up, it’s only three seconds and you’ll go back to sleep. You will wake up three days later with the constant sound of a machine, which shows that your heart is still beating.

After that, Ana will never be the same again, you will sleep soundly and your attention will always be active. She learned that everything can change in the blink of an eye, it is as if the life we love so much retains its disastrous magic tricks.

“Why did it happen on the subway that I take every day?Why didn’t I get up earlier that day?Why didn’t I die, like some of my teammates?These are questions that haunt her and for which she needs answers.

There are gaps in their history that have turned your safe world into a place full of potential threats disguised, hidden behind innocent gestures. The world is no longer a controllable and predictable place. What good is it if everything can disappear in an instant?

Ana not only needs to heal her physical wounds, but to feel safe again, a security that you will not feel if you do not find answers to all your questions, if you cannot finish this morning’s story. to ensure that the culprits will be punished and will not attack again.

It’s strange, but superstitions are often priceless. Imagine Anne remembering that day, she rose with her left foot; it’s not superstitious, but in your mind a relationship is established between the facts.

An association that is a lie and has no logic, but which is fantastic for her, Anne understands that if she gets up on her right foot it will not happen again, in this way she has turned an uncontrollable fact into something controllable that will calm her down. He’s found a cause he can act on and that’s just fantastic.
