Ten Reasons Smart People Seek Therapists:
1. I feel disconnected from people I care about.
2. All families are dysfunctional on some level, so we need to learn new skills.
3. It's nice to have someone to talk to who is objective.
4. It's difficult to make changes without support.
5. I do the same things over and over and expect different results; Help!
6. I need to learn to identify and cope with my emotions.
7. I'd love to stop feeling like a child when I walk into my parents' home!
8. I cope with my problems by turning to addictive behaviors (drugs/alcohol, gambling, sex, shopping, food, etc.).
9. I don't want a divorce.
10. No one is perfect!

- Hi
I am not able to contact you any other way so please delete this message from your guestbook when you have read it.
You recently applied to join my Health and Wellbeing Group on Squidoo, however your lens does not quite fulfil the Group Rules and Guidelines which you can see here - http://squidoo.com/groups/wellbeing/#module2475622
Please feel free to reapply if your lens meets these requirements in the future.
Kind Regards
flaminglacer
