Ep# 191: Do You Have the Dumb

In this episode, Dr. Kashey talks about frustration tolerance and how it plays a crucial role in managing frustrations effectively. He explains that frustration tolerance is the ability to think rationally and stay composed while experiencing frustrating situations. Dr. Kashey emphasizes that frustrations are inevitable, but it's our appraisal of these events that determines whether they become minor inconveniences or major problems. He discusses the importance of cultivating a flexible and reasonable belief system about frustrations, as this allows for a deeper well of tolerance and a longer space between stimulus and response. Dr. Kashey suggests that by reappraising frustrations as tolerable, neutral, or even good, individuals can avoid impulsive and destructive reactions. He also highlights the significance of distinguishing between temporary frustrations that can be ignored and persistent frustrations that require active problem-solving.
