Psychological Effects of Consumption

We live in times where the intimate has crossed the barrier that separates it from the public. Internet has made this leap was made quickly and massively. Our problems, fears and desires, seem to have escaped the limits of privacy suspicious, to appear on different pages "web" that offer a solution to whatever ails us. This produces almost all of this offered in a great showcase. "Nothing is impossible" is the primary slogan from advertising reaches every corner of the globe. This one has the feeling that we can invent ourselves and if we fail in reality, we still have the virtual world. Thus seen, there seems no limit to achieve our dreams, and in the fierce race to sell, (remember that one of the strongest pillars of the economy is consumption) we see the elimination of voids. Empty spaces can be filled with objects: technology, fashion apparel, announcements, developments and why not food. Each one will choose a way of trying to satisfy the greed that our time has been devoted to to encourage. The paradoxes in humans produces this lure to believe that everything is a product to be purchased are endless. The majority are psychologically.

Thus, a woman will undergo liposuction, a facelift, breast implants, and so, while not expected to be out of the male gaze. The theater is no longer primarily a place to save lives, moving to fill a place on the agenda of beauty and rejuvenation programs tailored However, market products are insufficient, despite their promises to meet or solve a problem of emotional nature. so the solution is sought in the wrong place. As might be expected, the company has a huge influence on how we build our relationships and our representations of the world. For this reason also generates increased each time, or in some cases, the emergence of a new symptom. If we talk psychological problems we find, for example, have increased depressive and cases of anorexia and bulimia. The many ways in which the human being reveals the insatiable demand for consumer societies are also a way to defend and preserve and subjectivity. The eating disorders are a clear example. Moving from one pole to another of the immense void which we are finding it difficult to crack closure. Both he swallows too much, like someone who swallows, also in too, show signs of something impossible to quench. Ironically, as we become more globalized, we also become fatter. This increase in weight average increase in world population, is something that has happened since the decade of the 70 and is often associated primarily with increased purchasing power and a decrease in physical activity, especially in children and teenagers. While this is true, it would be unfair to consider that there is an emotional cause this increase in caloric intake. No surprising that the classical methods for losing weight, lifetime, such as: exercise and diet (well taken), which require time and perseverance for success, are often abandoned. Accustomed to what we sell the market, we expect immediate results, and not being so, they jumped waiver of diet in diet, or buying fitness equipment that end up piled in the attic. Modern life, populated by multiple occupations and plunged into a maze of options, makes it difficult for us to reflect on how much of these situations we live with every day affect us emotionally. Immersed in the daily world and murmurs lush images, we have difficulty finding the time of silence. a time that calls us to enjoy life precisely because this is not forever. It is time that we must be willing to give for the emergence of what it's worth: the time it takes a relationship to hold, for our feelings to come or to finish a race. A time of others to clocks and calendars, is the time to know our children, to recognize our partners, to meet again in every age with our parents and siblings. A time impossible to measure, hence, unique. It is time to empty spaces those who invite us to contemplate, imagine, create, in which something new can always arise.
