I agree, it is very important to review one's own equation and assuredly on a regular basis! sam

This a truly great post,  that shows you are an extremely perceptive person.  And Iam in harmony with every word of it.  Unfortunately,  I live in a family that cannot or will not see their own emotional equations,  and every time I try to show them,  they brutally beat me up.  They defend their own false factors,  and will not consider any other factors.  So I have pretty much given up,  and just make sure that I defend my own equations for myself.  And even that is proving to be most difficult.......  Cheers

Re: Annicita,

I listed common equations here, not all my own.  For instance, I feel loved when someone covers me up while I am going to sleep. I feel unloved when someone ignores me or is not responsive to what I say or do. When someone doesn't get in contact for a while, my equations lead me to believe they don't like me any more, that I have done something to offend or to earn abandonment. 

There is a complicated logic-stream, typical of people who have been emotionally abused by over-critical, hostile, punishing parents, authorities and/or peers, leading from "If you aren't expressing approval, you are expressing disapproval," to "Your silence means I'm about to be punished."
