Draining On Mental Energy

“The more some factors are thought about the more persistent they become, some to the extent of a constant drain of energy in daily life.”

The quote states that the more certain issues are thought about, the more persistent they become, draining mental energy. This happens because focusing attention on problems gives them power, further destabilizing thoughts and allowing intrusions to become more prominent. 

• The core idea: Focusing on problems gives them energy and makes them more persistent.

• The mechanism: Your attention gives "energy and life" to negative thoughts, making them seem more real and intrusive.

• The result: This cycle can cause "further instability" and a "constant drain of energy" in your daily life.
