Implications of the Death and Adaptation Hypothesis - A Self-Analysis

Implications of the Death and Adaptation Hypothesis - A Self-Analysis

The first question that could be asked: Can everyone assess the impact on themselves from a scientific perspective? I think the answer is very clear. I completed my doctorate majoring in psychotherapy. During psychotherapy, a therapist observes himself along with the patient to ensure good management and take precautions against misconduct. This way I can evaluate myself on the implications of the hypothesis.

The first thing I felt after fully formulating the hypothesis was that I could think about death more naturally and practically. I spoke to the family members who were too dependent on me and suggested to them that they should have something of their own to survive even in my absence - due to death or some other natural and practical cause. I wasn't pessimistic or depressed when I discussed all of this. And the proof of this will be seen in the next paragraph.

The next thing I felt inside me is the urge to live a good, healthy life. I used to hesitate about being overweight and also not hesitant about exercising and controlling my diet. My parents are patients with hypertension and diabetes, both of which, combined with my obesity, increase my risk of becoming ill in the near future. So I went to exercise every evening, which I haven't been able to do for the past three years for the same reasons in my life. I wasn't afraid of future illness; Rather, it can be compared to increased awareness of disease. I felt happy.

Finally, I had some things that I did to achieve the goal of being a successful person. I was so busy and worried about these things that I didn't have time to sleep well. Even I couldn't save time for my son or other family members. I felt alienated in the desire for success and fame. I felt sick and couldn't contain myself. It was like an addiction to success that took no rationality or limits into account. After 2 to 3 days after completing the formulation of the hypothesis, the restless attitude had subsided. I had my ability to think and work; but I was free from the painful impulsiveness of ambition. I felt better than before and also assumed it was the healthier lifestyle I needed.

The question that occurred to me was that as a Muslim, the concept of death represented in the hypothesis was very familiar and accepted for me. How can the hypothesis influence me again! I also found the answer after thinking about it thoroughly. They are -

1) Perhaps my belief in the concept of death represented in the hypothesis has faded or weakened, which is a sad thing indeed.

and

2) Formulating the hypothesis gave me the opportunity to practice or remember the pattern of death that I believed in, and so it became more practical and renewed for me. I found that for a healthy and simpler life, it is helpful to remember death with its true appearance or concept which I advocated in the hypothesis.

I could discuss the above in a very scientific way. But I want this article to be very understandable for common people. So I won't have a complicated scientific discussion about the incidents I described in the article.
