How to enjoy your problems - Psyche Guides


Sree VijaykumarAs a therapist, I've found that so much of what I do is about giving people the space to say what they're struggling with. It can take them months. Not to resolve the problems, or even to understand them in a deep, philosophical sense, but literally just to realise what their problems are.

This is especially true for people with complicated conundrums, stressors that are difficult to explain. There's a special loneliness reserved for people in this situation - who are facing problems that seem weird and who worry that, if they let themselves admit how bad things are and how bad they feel, they'll realise they're too messed up to recover. If you recognise this description, I know how you're feeling. I've experienced these fears too.

The rise of singlehood is reshaping the world - The Economist
For most of human history, coupling up was not merely a norm; it was a necessity. Before reliable contraception, women could not control their fertility, and most were far too poor to raise children alone. Hence the centuries-old convention that, whereas a tragic play or saga ends in death, a happy one ends in marriage.
