Self-help is to me, the best help!
What comes to mind is that movie, "What About Bob?"
Richard Drefuss (sp) says something along the lines of..."You know Bob, there's a saying, that the best psychiatrist lies within here (pointing to his head)."
Too true!
It puts you more, back in the seat of control.
Sometimes, especially when we're within (
too much) our Selves, it's the externals that we work through, that can help the most! The learning lessons, the losses, etc.
They take us places we'd never've been, had we not learned what we did by going through the rough-stuff!
