Term Paper 1

                                             Mental Adjustments
I am a student, a wife, and a mother. My family and I live everyday with caution for I am Bipolar type I. I never really know where my emotions will take me for minute to minute. I started studying psychology as a way for me to understand why I don't feel "normal". So for me this assignment is welcomed. I plan to use, A Guide to Rational Living by Albert Ellis and Robert A. Harper. At the end of this paper I want to be closer to the answer as to what I can do to be a little more rational in my day to day life. I did consider something in relationship adjustment. I have read Deborah Tannen's book; You Just Don't Understand. I really enjoyed the knowledge into men and women's miscommunication. However I think fixing me will have to happen before adjusting my relationships.
