The problem in one sentence
- Most people focus, solve, then switch off. In stuck-addiction©, the switch jams. Life narrows. Mood and meaning slide.
What DRT does
- Repairs the inner on/off of healthy problem solving.
- Combines three levers:
- Diction: clearer inner language, less panic, more precision.
- Resolution: focused will with a concrete next step.
- Therapy: safe structure so change holds under pressure.
Quick self-check
- Do you keep looping the same issue after it’s “done”?
- Do you need more of the same behaviour to get the same relief?
- Do you feel less free after you “fix” things?
Try this 3‑minute reset (use today)
- Name it: “My mind is stuck on X.” Keep it factual.
- Shrink it: “What is the smallest useful step I can do in 10 minutes?”
- Close the loop: do the step, say “done for now” out loud, stand up, change location.
Example: Evening scroll
- Old pattern: “Five minutes” becomes 90. Late night. Tired tomorrow.
- DRT version: set a 15‑minute timer, write one action you will do after, when the timer ends say “done for now,” stand up, do that action. You train the off‑switch.
What changes when DRT works
- Craving and rumination lose their grip.
- Sleep and decisions improve. Fewer spikes, fewer crashes.
- Behaviour aligns with what you actually value.
When to get help
- The switch rarely turns off.
- Mood swings are frequent or costly.
- Relationships, money or work feel volatile despite your effort.
