Hey there.
Don't you go away either, you hear???
I have been known to write similar things myself...
But I invariably tend to find that it is offputting to people.
Because it is such a logical approach it kind of goes here is your problem - BANG and to solve the problem you need to do the following steps
1.
2.
3.But then that brings up a lot of issues (for some people more than others). E.g., if it is so easy to solve the problem then why is it something I have struggled with so much over a number of years??? If I do the steps and they don't work then is there something seriously wrong with me??? What if I can't do one of them???
Here is a joke that actually has a fairly serious message:
One man had great difficulty sleeping because he believed there was some kind of monster living under his bed. He went to a psychotherapist for a number of years but still had trouble sleeping. He switched to a behaviourist and after his first session he was cured. When asked what he did to cure him he said 'oh, it was easy, he just told me to cut the legs off my bed!'.
That is what people mean by a band-aid.
But sometimes people are happy with band-aids.Everyone here is learning.
And it can be hard at times.
But stay and Babble.
You are a wonderfully caring person.
Really.
We would miss you.
