Catastrophe theory, or slippery slope?

In real life – away from the Institut des hautes études scientifiques – it can be the situation where anxieties, worries and tensions can slowly increase in frequency and intensity until BANG! That’s it. You’ve had enough, and you show it very overtly – probably to the dismay of people near you.

This is best avoided, because it suggests a loss of control, which puts you in a vulnerable position.
Much better to be aware of your thoughts and mental feelings – not just now but recently. Consider how they’ve collected over the last five minutes, all morning, all week. . .
And in the moment try consciously applying the Control Model*.
Yes, it does require some discipline and some practice, but it works and it avoids catastrophes.
