My Story
This book was conceived to give voice to the stress and sadness I saw all around me. Despite living in the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the world, I found a gnawing restlessness everywhere.
As a physician, people came to me for their physical illnesses. I do not know how and when it began, but over the years, I was counseling patients for their personal problems more than giving medications for their physical ailment. I was giving them insights into their issues and learning from them.
An undercurrent of stress consumed 80 percent of the people who walked through my doors. Marital problems, sexual problems, bad bosses, children feeling let down by their parents, parents feeling let down by their children—there was no dearth of reasons for all the frustration.
To me, as an outsider, some of them seemed to have everything going for them, yet they were unhappy. Even the wealthy were not immune to an undercurrent of dissatisfaction and mental anguish.
As an observer, listening to people, I felt most of the problems we faced were due to our thought process and how we perceived each other.
Most importantly, I found people lacked coping skills. No school taught this.
