THE THEORY OF TRUTHISM: ELABORATING THE CONCEPTS OF STRESS AND ANXIETY
In this article, the researchers examine and analyze anxiety and stress from a different point of view and according to the characteristic of truth-seeking. In the approach of Truthism, human truth-seeking is considered the main element and factor of the theory. This attribute and characteristic of humans are expressed as the truth-seeking instinct. In this theory, stress and anxiety are entirely separate. Stress can be an enemy or a guide for a person. Anxiety, the result and the product of unresolved and old human stress, is a sign of illness. Therefore, a concept called "normal anxiety" does not exist in this theory. According to logic, human ignorance causes anxiety caused by unresolved stress. The treatment of anxiety in this theory is done with cognitive and behavioral dialectics. It occurs in the context of non-prejudice by accepting universal truths and obeying inevitable facts according to collective wisdom. The treatment occurs in slow steps and in the present time, paying attention to the truths the individual believes.
