Vicious Cycle

Revisiting some old work. You can see the full piece on my website (link at top of bio).

The separation of the mind into the conscious and unconscious is one of Freud’s most popular contributions to psychology. Freud believed the conscious mind contained the thoughts, feelings, cognitions and memories we are aware of. The unconscious mind, however, is a reservoir for our automatic skills, repressed memories of traumatic experiences, anxieties and desires.

In Vicious Cycle I continue to explore my experience with an anxiety disorder by re-creating an event where a thought or perception can trigger the fight, flight or freeze response. The body reacts to the physical sensations created by our hard-wired response to a perceived threat or danger and feeds the anxious thoughts. In turn this creates an even stronger physical response in the body and so the ‘Vicious Cycle’ of anxiety begins.

Once the ‘Vicious Cycle’ of anxiety takes hold the self is thrown into a state of psychological turmoil and the sense of the ‘normalized’ self begins to deteriorate.
