I think I have something interesting to talk about in this forum. Let me say first that I appreciate the free help I've received through this app or whatever you call it. Ok. Why do mass murderers from the Green River Killer to today with Ezekiel Kelly try so hard to avoid the death penalty? I'm being true and honest here, judge me and that's fine. I only want answers. Me I truly believe I'd beg for a quick death penalty rather than spend forever in prison, with all the bad things that can happen there. Am I wrong? Hey I admit to my failures I have a great relationship with God and Jesus. God is the only one who knows your heart. Please give me feedback.

Clarity isn't found in rushing or avoiding our thoughts. It's found in being present with them. The more we slow down and listen, the more our subconscious reveals its secrets. ~ Dr. Heath

(Estimated Read Time: 7 Minutes) Hooked on Dopamine? Science Says It’s Actually Your Subconscious Holding You Back Watch the Video Article 👉 https://youtu.be/7I3i1-2BOYY When people talk about “addiction,” they often point fingers at dopamine — a supposed chemical mastermind whispering, “One more round,” “One more scroll,” “One more bite.” But what if our fixation on dopamine is just surface-level? What if the real driving force behind our most stubborn habits isn’t this neurotransmitter at all, but the well-worn stories and tales (i.e., mental scripts) we keep telling ourselves? What if the true culprit is the quiet, often invisible subconscious beliefs that shape our every move? Welcome to a deeper look at what truly hooks us: Our own thought patterns. Once you understand how these mental pathways form, reinforce themselves and keep you locked into certain behaviors, you’ll see that dopamine isn’t the villain. It’s just the messenger. The message itself? The subconscious meaning you’ve attached to your daily experiences. Below is a practical roadmap to finally rewrite that script and take back conscious control of your life. Step 1: Laying the Cognitive Bedrock — Decades of Meaning-Making From the moment we’re old enough to interpret the world, we start assigning meaning to what we see, hear, and even the emotions we feel. Some of these interpretations are small, some monumental, but together they form the bedrock of our psychological landscape. Over time, these “attributed meanings” shape our thoughts, and our thoughts determine how we react to everyday events. • Early Imprints: Maybe as a child, you began to think you were invisible around busy parents or teachers. You decided silence was “rejection” or “disapproval.” This labeling process might never fully surface in your conscious mind, but it lingers, ready to color your view of any quiet moment in adulthood. Stored Meanings: Each experience — a harsh comment or an enthusiastic cheer — becomes a data point you interpret, reinforcing or refuting existing beliefs. The more often you validate a belief by repeating it to yourself, the more deeply it encodes.

Well Group/Class, I've already been warm-heartadly invited& welcomed by our Good Dr. Meeks, himself. However, I wanted to express my Thanks & Gratification, to the group/class, as a whole, because, the way I see it, we are all in this together. So here's a Big Thank You to Everyone associated and participating within this group. I wish us all wellness and growth.

#Overthinking is a Myth Ever think you’re overthinking? Actually, after 30+ years in private practice and a pair of Ph.D.s in psychology I’ve discovered OVERthinking (i.e., thinking TOO much) doesn’t exist. It’s actually UNDERthinking which is ignoring important aspects of a situation 😉 We can think FAST and shallow or SLOW and deep. UNDERthinking is the former which leaves us being unaware of our existence information that may be useful. As a veteran clinician, I’ve met so many that UNDERthink. I’ve never met, after encountering many thousands of patients and coaching clients, any who have thought TOO much.
