My name is Colin.

I am here to advance my knowledge of the human mind,specifically in the area of repetitive/obsessive behavioral patterns.

Begin the long winding post whoring process now!

welcome Colin. Why the interest in obsessive/repetitive behavior?

Hi, are you referring to psychological disorders such as obsessive compulsive disorder, the automatic response system, the neurological aspects of repetitive behaviors or behavioral therapy?

Repetitive actions covers a wide range of topics.

It is a bit of a defect of mine,hence the interest.I've got other interests as well,this is not what I am chiefly concerned with.

And I was refering to the nuerological aspects of obsessive/repititive behavior,I'm not OCD or the like.

Moreso understanding why one feels compelled to repeat a negative behaviol pattern even while being cogniscent of the implications.

Anyway,I hope to learn a good bit on this board,and hopefully can share my ideas with others.

So I thank you both for the welcome wagon;)

Um okay, theres this book on how to use visualization to rewire your neural patterns. I can't remember it off the top of my head but look for it in your local bookstore.

Essentially you can use it to stop negative behaviours by using visualization, its from a neuroscientist.

Sorry, I cant remember what the name of the book was, I just saw it in passing. Should be in the psychology section though.
