Managing All Life's Impossible Problems (Simon & Schuster;
September 1, 2015), veteran psychiatrist and APA Distinguished
Fellow Dr. Michael Bennett and his comedy-writing daughter Sarah
Bennett present the anti-hero of the self-help section and the
cut-to-the-chase therapy session we have all been waiting for. Most
people attend therapy to try and change something they don’t like
about themselves or to figure out a way to change another person.
The Bennetts argue that goals like this are impossible to achieve,
and therefore deflating and counter-productive. In F*CK FEELINGS,
they explain that the real F words in life are “feelings” and
“fairness,” and promise that any situation life throws at you is
manageable if you can keep your sense of humor, bend your wishes to
fit reality, restrain your feelings, manage bad behavior, and do
what you think is right. The Bennetts focus on realistic goals and
acceptance.. F*CK FEELINGS gives us solutions to 140 of the
problems that land on Dr. Bennett’s couch – family, love, work,
self-esteem, garden variety assholes  and more.
