Underlying the emotion of frustration is the irrational belief \u201d I should not have to suffer discomfort.\u201d This is often backed up by similar demands, such as \u201d the world must change to suit me\u201d or \u201d Everybody else must change , not me\u201d. As I often good-humouredly say to patients,\u2019 Good luck with those demands!\u2019 It is useful to redefine frustration as disturbance\/discomfort anxiety\u2019 in order to distinguish it from \u2018 ego anxiety\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the latter, we are making some demands on the situations. When frustrated about something , we are usually demanding that other people or situations change so that we don\u2019t have to suffer discomfort. This relieves us of the burden of having to change something in ourselves , or of accepting that it is not always possible to change circumstances , and that we must learn to adapt.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

LOW FRUSTRATION TOLERANCE<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To develop this skill , we must introduce another term:\u2019 frustration tolerance\u2019. This defines our capacity to suffer discomfort . None of us likes discomfort but we all have different endurance or tolerance levels. Those with high frustration tolerance levels can accept short-term pain for long term gain.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

Those with high frustration tolerance levels can accept short – term pain for long term again. Those with low frustration tolerance (LFT). However are not prepared to put up with short-term pain , yet still desire long term-gain. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A simple example of this might be where I might remain frustrated with my fitness regime, yet refuse to get off the couch. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the real key to developing the skill of how to manage discomfort is to acknowledge that frequently in life we must learn to accept short-term pain if we wish to achieve long-term gain. Once you learn how to put this concept into practice in your everyday life , you will no longer struggle to deal with discomfort or expect the world or life itself to change to suit you. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To learn how best to achieve this objective, I suggest the following two frustration exercises. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
