Editing The Science of Meaning and Viktor Frankl's Logotherapy (section)

== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Understanding</span> ==
Logotherapy is understood through '''Attitude''' and '''Responsibility'''.

'''1. The "Concentration Camp" Laboratory (Extreme Resilience)''':
"The last of the human freedoms is the choice of one's attitude."
* (See Article 764). **"Frankl"** "Observed" "In" "Auschwitz" and "Dachau" that "Those" who "Survived" were "Often" "Those" who "Could Find" "Meaning" in "Their" "Situation": "A Goal" to "Achieve," "A Person" to "Return To," "A Mission" to "Fulfill."
* "The Physical Conditions" were "The Same" for "All Prisoners." "The Difference" was "Internal."
* "This" "Produced" "His" **"Core Insight"**: "Everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms — to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances."
* "Meaning" is **"The Final Freedom."**

'''2. The "Meaning Gap" (Existential Vacuum)''':
"Modern affluence has created a new epidemic: emptiness."
* (See Article 076). "Frankl" "Observed" that "Many" "Patients" "Suffered" not "From" "Traditional" "Neurosis" but "From" **"The Existential Vacuum"** — "A Pervasive" "Sense" of "Emptiness" and "Meaninglessness."
* "This" "Manifests" as "Depression," "Aggression," and "Addiction" — "Attempts" to "Fill" "The Vacuum."
* "Traditional" "Therapy" addresses "Symptoms." "Logotherapy" addresses **"The Meaning Gap."**
* "Affluence" without "Meaning" is **"Spiritual Poverty."**

'''3. The "Attitude" Choice (Responsibleness)''':
"Responsibility is the other side of freedom."
* (See Article 091). "Frankl" "Proposed" that "The 'Statue of Liberty'" "On" "The East Coast" "Should Be" "Complemented" by "A 'Statue" of "Responsibility'" "On" "The West Coast."
* "Freedom" without "Responsibility" is "License," not "Liberty."
* "Logotherapy" "Calls" "The Patient" to **"Responsibility"** — "For" "Their Attitude," "Their Choices," and "Their Meaning-Making."
* "Freedom" is **"The Call To Responsibility."**

''''Man's Search for Meaning' (1946/1959)'''': **"Viktor Frankl's"** "Account" of "His" "Concentration Camp" "Experience" and "The Development" of "Logotherapy." "First Published" in "German" in "1946." "Named" by "The Library" of "Congress" as "One" of **"The Ten Most Influential Books" in "The United States."** "Has Sold" **"Over 16 Million Copies."** It proved that "The" **"Search" for "Meaning"** is "Not" "A Luxury" — "It Is" **"A Matter of Survival."**
