I’ll be Pleading The Fifth
Over the years I have heard the ol’ “Devil Made Me Do It” expression now and again, and I might of even used it myself. But, in the book ‘Help Yourself to Positive Mental Health’ By Howard Rosenthal and Joseph W. Hollis says in chapter 8 we should “stop describing yourself with negative labels”
I think this makes sence, since it is so much easier to blame others then to look at our self as the culprate or cause of our problems. I was looking over this book on the Google book preview site and I must say it did have a lot of good advice. I think I’m going to check out the library to see if they have a copy.
Here is what the site says about the book:
This work reveals 50 simple ideas and concrete activities to improve anyone’s mental well-being. Written in a conversational style, this resource provides techniques and specific suggestions to combat depression, fear, loneliness, anger, a poor self-image, undesirable habits, poor communication, relationship difficulties and other problems. Step-by-step, the authors show the reader the way to positive mental health.; All 50 ideas are introduced in the same straightforward format: a basic idea is presented on the right-hand page and a concise, one-page explanation that defines the concept and how to implement it is shown on the left.
