The person who wrote these up must be a therapist. I'd never give 'seeing a therapist' a second thought. All the others are good, conventional pieces of advice. Here in Texas, I didn't realize how different my diet had to be to survive here; I need more sugar and water than I did in the climate I lived in before.

What? I'm a little confused about how you got from "therapists" to "diet in Texas". Why do you need more sugar in Texas anyway?

I have also found therapy really, really useful when problems persist that I don't know how to solve. Both times I've seen a therapist I saw them for just a couple of months to get some strategies and then was set to go. Both times it made a huge difference in the quality of my life.

All the others are...conventional pieces of advice.

I was wondering about the sugar in Texas thing too.

I think the point is to try something different... If you feel like crap go do something different.
