恋愛はゆっくり進むべき理由 (Why We Need to Take It Slowly in Love)
- In our youngest years, we may have had to acclimatise ourselves to a very uneven supply of affection. Perhaps mother was unavailable and father was violent. There might have been a lot of sarcasm and not much patience for our sorrows or opinions. And therefore, the only way to survive would have been to withdraw, to learn to play alone and to make our peace with a restricted emotional diet. So when someone arrives in adulthood promising us a banquet, when someone lays out dish after dish of generosity and care, when someone promises us unlimited kindness and tenderness, our first response may not be joy but nausea, not delight but panic. We may be unable to absorb or metabolise any of the rich nutrients before us and, without quite knowing why, in order to maintain our poise, may have no option but to turn on our kind hosts, blame them for being weak or odd and run away. We might wish to tell them, please be so kind as not to be too kind, please be generous enough not to overwhelm me, please let me find my own way to reciprocation. On the other side of the ledger, we, the so-called generous ones, the banquet givers who like to move fast, should also be brave enough to question our behaviour. It may look as if we are being purely and simply romantic, Paris on the second date, nicknames after a week. But we may turn out to be, beneath our bold gestures, something rather more complicated and sad, untenably and unhelpfully anxious. We lose our minds if we haven't heard from them in two hours.
幼い頃、私たちは愛情の不均一な供給に慣れなければならなかったかもしれない。もしかしたら、母親は手に負えず、父親は暴力的だったかもしれない。皮肉が多く、私たちの悲しみや意見にあまり耳を傾けてくれなかったかもしれない。そのため、生き延びる唯一の方法は、引きこもり、一人で遊ぶことを学び、制限された感情の食事と折り合いをつけることだっただろう。だから、大人になってから誰かが私たちに宴会を約束してくれたり、気前と気遣いの料理を次々と並べてくれたり、無制限の親切と優しさを約束してくれたりしたとき、私たちの最初の反応は

依存症の克服方法 (How to Weaken the Hold of Addiction)
- Many of us are prey to addictive behaviours which we know run contrary to our deeper interests, but which we find ourselves entirely unable to desist from at key moments. Let's pick three of these – bulimia, porn addiction and alcoholism. We will appreciate, as soon as we come out of the tunnel of addiction, that we have neglected our interests and harmed ourselves. And yet we are at a loss as to what we might do. What, if anything, could help? One kind of answer is this. We should try to notice when the desire to regurgitate food or watch porn or drink strikes us. Though this might sound strange, those in the grip of addictions seldom do notice. They don't pay much attention to what has immediately happened before their desire strike. It doesn't occur to them that anything has. And yet, if they did look into themselves and studied the answers very carefully, they would have an important weapon with which to escape the downward spiral. And that's because, to make another generalisation, before there is ever an addictive behaviour, there is always a moment of feeling bad, very bad, about something. The triggers can be varied. A partner may not be as warm as they should be. Or someone at work seems disapproving and mean. Or one has been left out, perhaps not for the first time, of a social occasion. In other words, the triggers for addictive, self-harming behaviours are rooted in such emotions as loneliness, shame, a sense of unacceptability, a feeling of rejection or a belief one is not good enough.
私たちの多くは、自分の深い関心に反するとわかっていながら、肝心なときにまったくやめられない嗜癖的行動の餌食になっている。過食症、ポルノ依存症、アルコール依存症の3つを挙げてみよう。中毒のトンネルから抜け出せばすぐに、私たちは自分の利益をないがしろにし、自分自身を傷つけてきたことを理解するだろう。しかし、どうすればいいのか途方に暮れてしまう。助けになるものがあるとすれば何だろう？ひとつの答えはこうだ。食べ物を食べたくなったり、ポルノを見たくなったり、お酒を飲みたくなったりしたときに、それに気づくようにするこ
