Confrontation, awareness and taking responsibility, which are important elements of the therapy process, require the person to touch his wounds and take responsibility from time to time. This situation will often bring pain, not relief. However, this pain is a good sign for treatment. Therefore, a constant state of happiness in therapy can be seen as both an unrealistic expectation and a situation that should raise a question mark about the therapy. Of course, almost many people go to psychotherapy to relieve their pain. In every therapy, this is considered the ultimate goal of the process. The aim of the psychologist and the patient is ultimately for the person to be happy, to have their pain alleviated, to enjoy their life and to increase their quality of life.
However, which dose of pain in which situation is healthy and useful? What determines our tolerance for pain? While painful events advance, mature and cook some people, what elements come into play to regress and narrow others? At this point, the aim is not for the person to live a pain-free life, but for the person to become at peace with his pain in its appropriate and appropriate dose, and to find healing for the unhealthy dimension of the pain. Rather than always relieving the person of his pain, examining his relationship with pain, what causes him to avoid pain so much, what reduces his tolerance and what makes him vulnerable, what increases the dose of pain in the situations he experiences, are exactly the main points that therapy must capture.
