  • Summary

  • In this episode, Dr. Kashey talks about the concept of frustration intolerance and its detrimental effects, using the relatable story of Tabitha as an illustrative example. Tabitha's day is plagued by a series of frustrating setbacks from spilling coffee on her shirt to getting stuck in traffic and missing an important meeting. Unable to cope with the mounting frustration, Tabitha engages in destructive behaviors like emotional eating, venting to coworkers, and impulsively browsing job listings in a misguided attempt to escape her circumstances. Dr. Kashey explains how Tabitha's lack of frustration tolerance fuels irrational thoughts and emotional disturbances, which in turn lead to counterproductive actions that only worsen the initial frustrations. He highlights the importance of developing resilience and using rational thinking to downgrade emotional disturbances, regaining a sense of control and perspective.
