Struggling After Surgery | Am I The Jerk

Breaking Down the first half of the 'DEAR MAN' Skill

The DEAR MAN skill was the first thing I learned in the Partial Hospitalization program. This is one of the pivotal skills on my Mental Health journey. When you learn how to communicate what you need from those around you, and how to set boundaries, a whole new world opens up to you. Every one should enjoy life together. By learning how to fix issues the instant they arise, the more you open yourself to happiness with those close to you.

Let me know whether or not you guys want me to do Will & Grace instead.
