The book asks these luminaries for their help with the personal problems that threaten our happiness while also providing a comprehensive and fascinating overview of the various disciplines.\nThe book has five sections that use common questions which, whether mundane or disturbing, do cause psychological distress to some degree. Some examples are:\n1. What am I like?\nWhy do I keep leaving things to the last minute\nAm I a caring person or am I a \"doormat\"\nI was only joking\nIf I was more selfish, would I have more fun\n2. Why am I acting like this?\nI keep looking at my phone every few minutes\nWhy can't I concentrate\nI'm usually so well-behaved. . . what's with the road rage\nWhy do I lie when she says \"Does my butt look big in this?\"\n3. Other people\nWhy can't I find Mr\/Mrs Right\nHow do I stop my teenage daughter getting a tattoo\nMy partner is great - so why am I thinking of having an affair\nHow can I stop people unfriending me on social media\n4. What's happening?\nWhy do I keep saying embarrassing things\nShould I work for love or money\nWhy do I always buy the more expensive option\nWhat's the point\n5. How can I improve myself?\nWhy can't I lose weight\nI'm scared of moving on in my career - how can I change this\nHow can I think more creatively\nHow can I cope better with the tough times.\nReaders will discover their personality type, their default behaviors, and consider how the various theories play out in their life and what they may want to change. They can learn what specialists say about a specific behavior or unrecognized motivation, among the many other emotional drivers in life. There are Venn diagrams, mind maps and other illustrations to add clarity. Side notes list the theories that address a particular problem, such as positive psychology and existentialist psychotherapy in response to \"Why does it always happen to me?\"\nLife is not simple and it is certainly not without identity confusion, paralyzing fear and other deeply felt emotions and problems. Now a reader need only to turn to the question troubling them and Freud along with his psychoanalyst colleagues will lend a helping hand.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1770859861\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.1770859861.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Tomley, Sarah\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
