I am a seasoned Mental Health therapist and the trend is pretty much on the side of short-term and cognitive behavioral therapy. In other words, what you think is what is tied to how you feel and, ultimately, how you behave; likewise, if you don't like something, either change it or realize that you are the one who is creating your own unhappiness. Problem solving is simply doing something differently until you find something that consistently works for you. Once you discover that you do find something that works, keep doing it, until, of course, it stops working. Besides, you are entitled to just one thing in this world and that is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, and so start working with what you have and enjoy the process. That is because the end result is only a new transition to a new direction in life. Therefore, find that which activates all five senses in pleasant ways that consistently bring you far more joy than unhappiness. This may come as a surprise, but life isn't always fun, so grow up and realize that we experience bad things at times in order to fully enjoy the good things.
For those of you who are dissatisfied with the Ohio program, it is time to enroll at Alabama, until another dominant program comes along and then enroll there. Good, God, the Internet has turned us all into morons. For God's Sake, how did other former OU Alumni survive not having a MAC football Championship team? Actually, many of them have done just fine, and so will all of us regardless if Ohio Wins the MAC or falls to the next three opponents on their schedule.
That is your free Mental Health Public Service Announcement for the day. Yes, you are welcome.
