When In A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation?

When In A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation?

Certain life changes can ROCK you to your core.  Others leave you wondering what's the point of it all.  When these feelings overtake you, you may be experiencing an 'EXISTENTIAL CRISIS', a situation that can evolved into a difficult and sometimes an unbearable When In A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation❔❔❔

Psychologists define EXISTENTIAL CRISIS as a normal transitional phase that many of us do experience.  Here's quite a scary scenario:  When something in your life makes you confront that you will die at some point, and that's whether someone in your life dies, there's an illness or something similar, you might then start to ask questions about WHERE YOU ARE in life.  So you might blurt out, WHAT DOES THESE ALL MEAN?  The studies of psychologists show that there's usually a TURNING POINT and moment of awareness that's often linked with worrying about death.  That TURNING POINT triggers a A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation๐Ÿ“Œ๐Ÿ“Œ๐Ÿ“Œ

That TURNING POINT causes people to think about and question the meaning in their lives.  They look at what they're doing and WHY they're doing it.  They may have profound feelings of dissatisfaction about where they are in life.  BTW, no one is immune from getting into A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation.  Many times in the past, I've been in that 'KITCHEN SINK' situation and many times I kinda jumped straight from the frying pan into the fire⏳⏳⏳

A financial crisis is another trigger of A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation.  Even that idea about death, we can keep it at bay for a long time but when that coronavirus pandemic hit us all, death was so suddenly FRONT & CENTER for many people.  It's like they were running on a hamster wheel everyday just trying to catch up.  But so suddenly, that dreaded pandemic stopped that wheel.  People then slowed down enough to start to wonder 'WHY AM I ON THIS WHEELDO I EVEN WANT TO BE ON ITWHY DO I KEEP GOING?'  People then started to question the things that they had been doing in a rote way.  It's really all about the meaning of it all๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž๐Ÿ’Ž

So before we all get shocked to be in A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation, here are the most common triggers:

  • Death of a loved one 
  • Illness/Grave medical situation
  • Sudden change in circumstances, e.g. an unexpected job loss
  • Age-related 'LIFE CHANGE', e.g. kids leaving home
Where possible, never get into A 'KITCHEN SINK' Situation✅✅✅
