CHOOSE

Christian psychiatrists Drs. Frank B. Minirth and Paul D.
Meier insist that any patient of theirs who is a Christian
must be honest and use language that expresses the reality
of the situation. In their book "Happiness is a Choice",
the authors state, "...we cringe whenever patients use the
word 'can't'. They say, for example, 'I just can't get along
with my husband.' 'I can't give up the affair I'm having.'
'I can't stop overeating.' 'I can't love my wife...' If an
individual changes all his can'ts to wont's, he stops
avoiding the truth, quits deceiving himself, and starts
living in reality."
