When to listen and when to ignore advice

Tell me this, would you listen to someone that said I just watched this YouTube video on dental  surgery, you don't need to see the dentist. I can take out those wisdom teeth, because they only want your money. Hopefully you wouldn't, the same rule applies for mental health issues! Without the proper training and experience,  you can honestly potentially kill a person by not having the proper skills to treat and diagnose a person  Unsolicited advice, does more harmful than it does good, and comes from opinions and not actual facts.  In today's world, everyone is a so called expert in health care and nutrition.

Self Awareness: Why It's important and how to get it

Self Awareness is defined as "having a clear perception of your personality, including strengths, weaknesses, thoughts, beliefs, motivation, and emotions. Self Awareness allows you to understand other people, how they perceive you, your attitude and your responses to them in the moment." I'm a firm believer, in people playing a role in their own treatment, one of the things that gives you an upper hand is self awareness. How does it help you ask, by understanding your strengths and weaknesses, it shows you what you need to work on and you can most effectively work on it. With self awareness, here is a quote from an article I wrote a few months ago "Taking a look at the following questions and really thinking long and hard about what your answer is and for the questions you negatively answer or don't have an answer for, ask yourself why. What are my strengths? What are my long-term and also short-term goals? What do I want to change? What are my weakness and ...
