Are You Living The Truth says Dr. Keith Ablow

"What we've forgotten as Psychologists is that people have stories underlying the
symptoms their lives." says Dr. Keith Ablow on today's show.

Dr. Keith showcased a family struggling with addictions and emotional separation.
The first family had a 13 year old girl whose obesity and loneliness led her to attempt
suicide twice.

Dr.Keith called her the identity patient. The patient in the family that holds the
problems that the whole family suffers. He says that we run away to unhealthy
things in our lives when we try to escape pain. The unhealthy things become friends to us.

...until we go and journey into the underlying story of pain from the past instead of
ignoring it our present pain will continue.

What unhealthy "friends" do you have in your life? Are they unhealthy relationships? Work environment?

Start Living Your Truth Today!

Your Coach,
Yukio
