Abstract
A therapeutic process, called inflectional therapy, is essentially a single-person process for diminishing the mental ailments of depression and anxiety. As the sufferer, being said single person, experiences such an ailment, [she]/he commences to record his thoughts and feelings by verbal expression onto a recording medium, such as an audio tape recorder. This is called a session, and the ensuing recording is called a recorded session. Typically, multiple sessions comprise adequate therapy for depression, but a single session usually diminishes a bout of anxiety. In circumstances where the sufferer does not have ready access to his recorder at the time of the ailment, he may commence recording his thoughts and feelings of the “prior” ailment when he eventually has access. Also, the sufferer may include positive, verbal expressions of encouragement during a session. A person may even record those thoughts and feelings when he is not undergoing a current ailment, such as inflecting upon happiness and other positive thoughts, or aspects of a personality disorder. Then, as desired, he listens to the recorded sessions for examining his ailment from the objective, recorded format, for the self-observation that leads to self-objectivity. But more significant, therapeutic value lies in the act(s) of expressing one'"'"'s thoughts and feelings within the session(s) through the mental “focal point” of the recording medium.—For these matters, inflectional therapy may be utilized in institutional environments, such as hospitals, businesses, the military, etc., to treat patients, and to calm personnel during situations of conflict.
