Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety / Spiritual Malady
Our discussion is not partisan, licensed, nor is it an academic or scientific thesis, medical diagnosis, prognosis, philosophy, prescription, discipline, cure or treatment. Based on experience, we neither propose nor oppose any position, person, place, or thing nor do we promote rituals or any religious service - real or imagined.
Listening indicates some interest in solving mental conflicts. Automatic reliance on what you hear is not suggested nor is it a substitute for taking direction from responsible parties you rely on, or are under the care or influence of, including professionals.
Our conversation is about conditions we create, those within our control, even as it can be hard to believe we could have anything to do with such disturbances. Only you can determine if this is your case. If your mental state is wholly out of your control then other people may be your only hope.
There is no greater enemy we face than the one we imagine to be our self. There is no greater impact anyone else can make on our experience since our brain is where choices along with our pain and pleasure zones occur.
Induced insanity is a disturbing mental condition. It allows we can simultaneously make believe we have nothing to do with the problem. As a result it is easy to conclude there is nothing we can do about it. No amount of hopelessness can ever overcome this hopeless thought as long as it is maintained.
Mistaking thoughts for reality causes misgivings about Reality and Truth. Life only seems complicated when we mistake how we think of life and truth as our reality. This position presumes there is not other reality.
Feeling empty, alone, disconnected? Feeling out of place? Trying to find where you belong, yet never arrive? Seeking, searching, questioning day after day? Trying to feel better, get over the past or get past the present discomfort? Feeling hopeless about hopeless ideas is a good sign that our body language is guiding us accurately - even while we are not listening.
Consideration is contemplative, awakened meditation. Absolute Knowing Awareness is simple because it does not change, it is natural and it is our nature - not an option or negotiatiable.
Awe and inspiration are the realization that all possibility is present here, now, for all that is and all who are—always in all ways.
Knowing’s nature is Absolute: not negotiable, occasional, or optional.
There is no doubt where there is no question.
Reality and Truth are the Substance of Life. Lying has no substance and so generates unhealthy, conflicted turmoil. Loneliness is an accurate reflection of disconnected, baseless thinking. Creating any cause while denying its effects sustains the vicious cycle of obsessive thoughts, which lie at the center of addictive behaviors.
Einstein noted: “You cannot fix a problem with the same thinking that created it.”
Symptomatic recovery does not cure obsessive mental illness; it cleans the lens so the problem can be seen. Emotional sobriety is sane living. When wrong is seen as wrong it is right. This does not correct the wrong but allows for correction.
Peace on earth does not require the grave thought we must first be being buried in it.

Before discussing the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and how they can be applied to all compulsive behaviors and obsessive thoughts consider this: Identifying the mental problem of addiction, like diagnosing any disease, includes the individual identifying with the problem as the only one who can diagnose their problem and act effectively to dissolve that problem. If we are free to choose what and how we think - then we are each solely able to determine how and what we do with the mental problems and suffering we create. Even without fully understating all of the mental defective traits that induce obsessive thinking it is easy to notice the effects of inner conflict, emotional turmoil and mental anguish. Since we share an Absolute Common Bond - common suffering is a gateway to help us collectively see that if there is a way into any nightmarish disturbance there is a way out. Since nightmares occur when we sleep it is worth noting that we are able to sleep walk while we think we’re awake. By identifying the disturbing elements we experience the obvious can Moore easily replaces the chronic attempt to maintain oblivion.
Focal points: The steps are based on principles. Principles do not change. There is nothing simpler than that which does not change and nothing is easier to complicate than thinking otherwise. Principles are natural and fundamental to our existence. Principles like our Absolute State of Being is not a choice - “They” Have Us - we cannot let go of them. Unprincipled, immoral, irresponsible, unstable thoughts are unnatural choices to make believe how we think about Reality, Truth, Life, Light and Love - determines our life rather than concede We Are determined by them: Absolutely and We Are so Free to choose how and what we think of them we can even choose to believe we are condemned by them.
Responsiblity, Choice and Freedom are all Absolute Natural States of human nature. Consideration is not a conviction but an awakened - eyes wide open deliberation as a meditative contemplation.
We Know We Know.
We Are Aware We Are Aware.
We Are as We Are.
Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune that are accurately called disorders. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse Nature’s Law and Order and our Universe's Essence. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and compound and degrade health.
Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment. For as long as it is misdiagnosed - any cure or treatment will perpetuate its contagion.
Principles affirm Our Indivisible nature. Sharing Principles confirms our natural indivisibility. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is an unnatural choice to oppose reality which is impossible to accomplish though we are free to try.
Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible gibberish of ignorance - not reality.
