Forgiving and forgetting the act needs closure.

Journal your worries down

Simply writing down the things that bother you will do a lot to alleviate the anxiety surrounding them. This technique also helps to curtail sleep problems and nightmares, as worries that we write down during the day don't typically bother us by night. Once these are written down, you can then schedule times to deal with these issues. Before that time comes, let these issues leave you and go about your day

The Stanford prison experiment, perhaps the most well-known of any mentioned here, was conducted in 1971 by Philip Zimbardo with an aim to study what psychological effects are en‍

entailed in becoming either a prisoner or a prison guard. Here 24 male subjects were taken and randomly selected to be either guards or prisoners within a mock prison in the basement of the Stanford psychology building.

Zimbardo was reportedly impressed at how quickly the subjects adapted to their roles, as the guards quickly took on more and more authoritarian roles and eventually even resorted to the psychological torture of the prisoners. Not only did the prisoners take the psychological abuse passively, they even went so far as to harass other prisoners at the requests of the guards. It was not until after Zimbardo himself started to condone the abuse that two prisoners quit the experiment early and it was all stopped after only six days.

Extraverts tend to focus most of their energies into their outer worlds, whereas introverts prefer to introspect.

People who sense

usually focus only on the pure information they are given, while those who intuit usually add their own interpretations and meaning. Thinkers tend to consider consistency and logic while making decisions, while feelers look more at people involved and special circumstances. When observing the outside world, judges tend to want to get things decided whereas perceivers prefer to stay open to new information. All of these personality dimensions should be kept in mind when conversing with others because these dimensions can create large chasms between people that will have to be crossed.
