Question by maJESTIC haMSTERS: How does awareness of psychological processes affect the actual psychological process?
Basically, how does being aware that you are currently undergoing a certain psychological process affect the psychological process itself.

For example, say hypothetically, a loved one died. You’d be undergoing the process of denial. But being a particularly analytical and logical person, you recognise that you’re in denial. Obviously you have a conflict here between logic saying you’re undergoing denial (which is false) and emotion agreeing with denial. What’s the end result? How does this work out?

From experience (not the loved one death example), I’d say you reach a deadlock of confusion in which neither emotion or logic is able to beat..

Question by Jon R: Is it normal to grieve over a daughter getting married?
My friend says she is grieving over her daughter who is getting married next month. She feels a “loss”, as if their mother/daughter relationship will change after she’s married. Is this normal? What advice would you give her? Thanks, a lot.

Best answer:

Answer by looneybin90
That is not normal! She should be thrilled for her daughter’s happiness starting this new chapter of her life!

I can only hope this mother hasn’t actually said this to her engaged daughter- that would almost certainly cause change in their relationship.
