Dear all....THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT POST FOR ALL THOSE WHO LIKE HORROR MOVIES AND CRIME THRILLERS...
I recently came across a person. While talking, the person expressed that he likes horror movies and crime thrillers very much. The individual said he does not get scared by watching all the ghost movies. Instead, he sits on the edge of the sofa and enjoys the movies with lots of curiosity and interest.
Few of the negative things do give pleasure for those who are not mentally or physically healthy (or both)...or it can also be said that those who derive pleasure out of the negatives have some issues with the health of their body and mind. Obviously they will have issues in their relationships with others. There will be manifestations of the impact of these negative entertainments and pleasures in their behaviours, thoughts, emotions and how they talk, treat and show emotions to others i.e their overall personality!!
I asked him 'Do you get dreams during sleep?'
'Yes sir!'
'Do you get dreams involving horror, crime etc?'
'Yes sir!'
'Do you enjoy ghosts and such terrifying scenes in your dreams?'
'No sir!'
'Do you enjoy such dreams?'
'No sir. But i don't get such dreams the same day of watching the movies or subsequent days. But i do get horror dreams at times!!'
'Do you agree that this habit of watching such movies is a reason for getting such dreams?'
'May be, i don't know!'
'Do you get scared of these?...Do you wake up with sweating in the middle of the sleep and thereafter are you able to sleep well?....Does the dream affect your thoughts, emotions and behaviours on the day of the dream?'
'Yes...i do get scared. I wake up. But don't get sweating etc. Sometimes the sleep is good and sometimes disturbed after the dream. Yes, it does affect my day after the dream. Sometimes mildly and sometimes badly. I am scared of losing of my job, scared of boss shouting at me for being late or inadequate performance, scared of someone finding fault with me, scared of someone leaving from my relationships etc., during the day. The fear is sometimes more, sometimes less and sometimes moderate!'
'How are your emotions?...Do you get angry and frustrated fast with people and life situations and on things beyond your control?'
'Yes sir...i do have emotional tandrums...i get angry fast when people do not do what i like...and i hate people who do things which i don't like...and i feel angry, sad and frustrated when i am told to do something which i don't like!!'
'Do you get wild at that time in words and actions?...Do you show symptoms of sweating, dizzy, giddiness, panic or any other physiological symptoms?'
'Not always sir, but yes...i can say that i start shouting and throwing things sometimes!'
'Do you think that all these negatives are due to your habit of liking and watching horror movies and crime thrillers?'
'I don't know!'
'Ok. As you like and enjoy these movies i suggest you continuously watch these movies from morning to evening for one week. You think you will be the same person after one week?'
'No sir!'
'Do you think that these movies would have made any positive effect in your personality?...What do you think would have happened to your thoughts, emotions and behaviours?'
'Yes sir. I realise the issue now. They don't cause any positives. Possibility of negative changes in my personality is more. I agree. Thank you so much for this awakening talk. I know what i have to do now. Thanks a lot!!
The crux is...
If a person likes something negative...something that is injurious to the mind or body or his social relationships, then there is something wrong. It will affect the health and the personality.
