Mental Illness Doesn’t Recognize Logic

Author : Carolyn Mahboubi

Mental Illness Doesn’t Recognize Logic –

• Depression: It focuses on the 1% that’s negative in a 99% positive situation

• Anxiety: It focuses on the 1% odds of a terrible outcome happening, instead of the 99% chance that it won’t

• Body Dysmorphia: It focuses on the 1% imperfection instead of the 99% that’s beautiful

• OCD (cleaning): It focuses on the1% that isn’t “spotless” instead of the 99% that is

Pointing out the “99%” to a sufferer often doesn’t help – they know it’s there, but it’s like their mental illness has put a barrier up that doesn’t “let it in”.

Please be patient and understand – there’s no simple way to just “snap out of it”

Hi, I’m Carolyn, a Life and Leadership Coach and an expert in moving my clients from knowledge to action. I’m based in Los Angeles and Lake Tahoe and work with clients around the world. I work with individuals who are strong, committed, high achieving, inspiring and fun. Together we work to remove the blocks that are keeping them from living their best, most powerful life. I’m a mother, daughter, sister, partner, ultra-runner, professional life coach, and entrepreneur. I’ve had a rich professional life, primarily in the fashion industry, which began early when I launched my first business at 16. In the ensuing three decades, I served in management and executive roles at four of the top fashion companies in the world. Personally, my life has been marked by extraordinary blessings, but also challenges. Fleeing a revolution, immigrating, single parenting, losing a job, and managing chronic pain, have been part of my life story, as is the case for so many others.
