Conflict and seeing the forest amongst those trees

Posted by 64bowtie on May 31, 2005, at 2:38:47

All, perhaps my sensitivity to conflict indicates how dismissive the mental health industry is to things we can do about our own recovery... Perhaps we can create a modality that includes conflict resolution strategies, thereby ensuring that recovery techniques do a better job of sticking!

I by no means want to trivialise the importance of this universal blind spot... Dumping conflictedness into the discussion of depression is calculated to increase awareness of an aspect to our lives we can do something about...

What is magnificent about improving our conflict resolution skills and abilities is that conflict is everywhere in our lives... When we get better at conflict resolution, every moment in our lives has a chance, a simple chance, of improving...

That's all awareness can promise... A chance, a simple chance, that perhaps, maybe, that our lives finally can improve, simply because we are initiating action toward something we actually can... do... in our lifetimes... to improve our results, therby improving our lives...

This takes personal homework, and cooperation from those significant to us... Solution, become a 'coach' for anyone who refuses to cooperate... Battery is out of the question... That's violence... Coercion is also not an option... We must mediate these primal/primative conflict resolution practices in order to see what we have been doing wrong till now...

There are trees out there, and they are the forest!
