Quick fixes
Wondering if I have a lack of patience.Perhaps I need to find other coping mechanisms.
I feel it's an inherent trait for most of us to feel like something isn't working enough for us, some things do require more time, effort, patience and a certain level of discipline to keep at it even if we don't see any significant impact or the impact we were hoping for.
I believe, it is a great idea to continue to exploring around though, there's many things out there and we may find our fit someday, I hope you do too, @Ljizzizza44.
What is it that you're coping with, if you'd like to share?
Also, Is there any particular coping mechanism you're considering to try?
@Lelmer4
in some things we may become impatient but in the big picture many quick fixes as you referred to have unintended or unseen side effects / or do not last ....
each situation is different but ask yourself why you want a quick fix instead of a perhaps more solid one.
@Lelmer4
Patience is a great Value to have and sometimes we need to work at it. One skill I like to use when working on this value is the DBT skill STOP. Below is a great image to help. I also like the links on this image to help me with other skills with relationships in my life.
