ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT... THIS IS PROBABLY NOT RIGHT FOR THIS GROUP, BUT I feel it is important enough for you HACKERS out there (like me)... Of course the methods are panned by the "professionals"... they are 'frightened' by the SIMPLICITY of the method. It's sorta hard to charge $80 an hour for years and years... and they find out that there is a simple cure to most psychologal problems... The SHRINKS are in trouble... The BOTTOM LINE is not what the "professionals" say... but what you and I say... The simple solution is to buy ONE book (Frogs into Princes)... read it and TRY the VERY SIMPLE situations... THEY WORK! I dont give JACK SHI* if someone else says it doesn't work... because I've tried it and it does work... instantly... perfectly! If you want control over your own brain and you want to be able to reprogram yourself... give it a shot. At the most, your out $9.00 for a book. Don't you think that alot better than believing someone who is afraid of losing their jobs and theories (new theories are always hard to swallow). It's not alot of HYPE... its methods which have... and can... be proven within minutes... but only if you care to! Nice try... but please let people make their own decisions instead of telling us what the "professionals" think. How many shrinks do you know that REALLY DO A GOOD JOB???
