Learned helplessness is a psychological concept that can be summed up very well in the phrase "no matter what I do, I won't achieve anything." Learned helplessness refers to a state of powerlessness, the feeling of having no control or influence over what happens in our lives.

In this video, I discuss how it arises and also give you some strategies on how to overcome this state of helplessness, although it is not always easy, as it depends on its origin. It is not the same to have lived experiences that make us feel nullified or confused for a few months or weeks, as it is to live them for years.

Learned helplessness can lead to a state of passivity in which we resign or surrender to a situation without doing anything to change it. Learned helplessness affects our motivation, the concept we have about ourselves, how we perceive the things around us... and it is a state that appears in some psychological disorders such as anxiety, depression, and some personality disorders.

All of this, including some strategies that can help you overcome it, is what we will see in this video. If you like it, find it interesting or useful, I invite you to subscribe to my channel "Epsiba Psicología", where we talk about different aspects of human behavior.
