Breaking the Cycle: How Play Therapy Helps Address Extreme Thinking in Children
Extreme negative thinking is a cognitive disorder that can significantly impact a child’s overall well-being, manifesting as unhealthy thought patterns and negative beliefs such as “no one likes me,” “I am the problem,” “I’m not good enough,” “I’m always picked last,” or “my parents don’t like me,” etc. These negative thought patterns are often black and white, ignoring any alternate perspectives, leading children to develop self-doubt, anxiety, and, in more extreme cases, even depression.

But somewhere between the pages they shared, and the countless cups of coffee, something clicked.

Chemo Treatment Day One. Content Warning.
My husband and I started our day at 5:30am yesterday morning (01/07/2025) by getting up and leaving the house by 6:30am to make sure we arrived early so we could figure out where to go. We arrived early enoug that we got a good parking spot. I was originally told to go to the fourth floor of the cancer institute to get labs done through my port. However that wasn’t the case. I had to go back down the the second floor and register with my oncologist first. When we got to the oncologists office, they weren’t open for another half hour (7:00 we arrived at the oncologist office, they didn’t open until 7:30). Get signed in and then sent across the hall for labs. They had to get me twice with a needle because the first one was to short and I had swelling still going on from port placement. They finally got the needle in, and back to the oncologist’s office we went. We spoke to the oncologist first, going over everything and making sure we both understood what was going to be happening during chemo and potentially after chemo. Once the doctor’s visit was over, that’s when we went to the fourth floor.

The Happiness Treadmill: Why We Keep Chasing What We Already Have
Ever get that new gadget, land that promotion, or achieve a long-sought-after goal, only to find the initial excitement fading faster than you'd like? It's not just you. It's a common human experience, and psychology has a name for it: the hedonic treadmill. This concept suggests that regardless of what happens to us—whether it's a stroke of good fortune or a difficult setback—we tend to return to a relatively stable baseline level of happiness. It's like we're constantly running on a treadmill, putting in effort but staying in the same place when it comes to long-term happiness. Let's explore why this happens and, more importantly, what we can do about it.
