For some reason, psych majors and practicing psychologists seem to be some of the most unstable people I know. And I've known a few personally fairly well, as well as been to see some professionally. I realize that I'm much more functional in the real world than they are, and usually much happier.

Happy(tm) is relative, and every once in a while we all need a reminder how good most of us have it.

We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
