Insight --- The situation for which I was suffering is not happening to me right now.

I was applying Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and all of a sudden this insight hit me. And as of the future I looked the evidence that I don't know.

@Leo Gura Was your avoidance of truth episode based on a therapy to improve one's life? When a person is suffering then is that person is avoiding truth ?

Thank you.

Of course! Avoidance is one of the top causes of all emotional disturbance.


“Our most valuable resource is not time, but rather it is consciousness itself. Consciousness is the basis for everything, and without it, there could be no time and no resource possible. It is only through consciousness and its cultivation that one’s passions, one’s focus, one’s curiosity, one’s time, and one’s capacity to love can be actualized and lived to the fullest.” - r0ckyreed

If you share your situation in more detail we could get a more fruitful conversation going

No, you can face truth and still be suffering

Also by definition, distraction is a mechanism to avoid suffering
