It’s not easy getting by when you can’t control what you’re thinking. Negativity, dread, depression: bad thoughts come in all shapes, sizes and flavors. After talking to my friend Melissa about her personal experiences with these kinds of problems, I get a professional opinion on how unwelcome ideas can interrupt our lives and what we might be able to do about it.

Special thank you to my guests Melissa and Dr. Joy Ross.
