| The Stop Technique refers to a technique which is generally used as a therapeutical technique for the control of obsessive thinking. Some people are haunted continuously by negative or undesirable thinking like thoughts of undressing in the public, thoughts of losing control, thoughts of destroying something etc. They seldom act like these but are very frustrated due to this unwanted and undesired thoughts. When such thoughts occur, they are taught to say STOP to themselves at first loudly and later as the client gains more control, he can say æSTOP’ silently but emphatically. This is repeated until the thoughts cease totally. By some trials, the frequency of unwanted thoughts slow down and finally ceases altogether Quelle: Gloria Buenavista - 84916/2006-09-02
