Introduction
Because of our having to live in reality, we’ve all experienced being emotionally uncomfortable in the past, and many of us may be experiencing that state now. But that doesn’t mean we’re mentally ill in spite of an increasing number of mental health professionals who seem to see signs that are compatible with a psychiatric diagnosis of mental illness for anyone they might encounter. They could probably find a mental illness disorder in anyone chosen at random from a sidewalk! But if this were true, wouldn’t we then have to conclude that, with no exception, everyone on earth is mentally ill? But being mentally ill isn’t a universal characteristic of the human species now, nor has it ever been in the past. In contrast, having periods of being emotionally uncomfortable is very much a characteristic of the human race. Just because we become emotionally uncomfortable at times, doesn’t mean we have a mental illness. It’s unfortunately an inescapable part of our having to live in reality. It is the purpose of this book, not only to show some big deceptions that are prevalent in Psychology, but also to show how our emotional problems develop and how we could have avoided them. In doing this, we’ll uncover ways, never revealed before, that can unconsciously make us more emotionally comfortable. If “psyche” means “mind,” we’ll put the “psyche” back in Psychology that, in its recent discovery of the brain, has truly lost its mind! This book will restore the mind to Psychology by introducing, for the very first time, the most important concept in Psychology today, the unconscious entity.
