Its when someone gets "stuck" in one of those four categories and can't get through them to finally accept and move on that it becomes a problem.

The first part is literature, the second part, I totally agree with. Sadly, folks want a microwave solution to their problem so they can get on with their lives instead of investing in themselves, and for the sake of their families, to understand what is going on in their thinking.

Trust me, I am in a business where I work with clinically and physiologically depressed people on a daily basis, and medication does help so that they can function in every day life instead of ending up spending every day with Jack and the Chief.
