An experiment was carried out on a number of dogs by subjecting them to electric shocks while provding them with a switch that they can use to stop the electric current from flowing into their bodies, but for a group of dogs the switch were set not to work even if it was pushed.

The solution is simple, try to choose successful friends, I know that this may be something that is out of control but at least put this new parameter into consideration while expanding your relations.

* Media and Learned Helplessness: The song “My Immortal” is considered a perfect example for teaching you how to become helpless, the choice of words simply programs you to learn how to be broken. Don’t underestimate the effect of the music you listen to on your personality, its impact is far bigger than you could imagine. (see the psychological effect of songs for more information

Learned Depression and Learned Helplessness

I have met people who used not to get depressed whatever happens to them and on speaking to one of them few years later I found him depressed. Just as helplessness can be learned, depression can be learned too simply because in many cases depression is nothing more but being convinced that you are helpless. This emotional pain you are currently experiencing as a result of your depression may be nothing more than a false belief about your ability to take an action!!

Final Words

Don’t let life fool you, don’t learn how to become helpless because you have failed once or twice Whatever the situation you are facing force your way out without feeling helpless, and whenever you feel like being broken just remind yourself of the fact that helplessness is learned and that it’s not something that you were born with, And remember, just as you learned helplessness by practicing it you can unlearn it by not practicing it.
