(Dr. Norquist is at a training program this week. We are re-running a letter that was published earlier in this column.) Dear Dr. Norquist: I’ve been in therapy for awhile. It’s been helpful learning why I have the problems that I have, but I can’t seem to change. I still feel the same, mostly irritable …
Dear Dr. Norquist: I’ve had the pleasure of meeting a very beautiful woman. She’s one of the coolest, and best looking, people I’ve met in a long time. I’ve developed an attraction towards her. She’s a very attractive girl and I don’t really consider myself attractive, or at least not attractive enough to be with …
Dear Dr. Norquist: I never thought, at age 35, that I would be so unhappy with my life. I have been in the same job for the past 7 years. It pays well but is torturous. Seems like I can never do enough, no matter how much time I put in. I work overtime regularly …

(Dr. Norquist is on vacation this holiday weekend. We are re-running a letter that was published earlier in this column.) Dear Dr. Norquist: My feelings of love for my fiancé seem to come and go. In fact, I’m not really sure what I’m “supposed” to be feeling. I mean, what is the experience of love …

Dear Dr. Norquist: I’ve always been an anxious person, but lately it’s getting worse. I worry that bad things could happen to my children and grandchildren. I worry my daughter could lose her job in this economy and then they couldn’t pay the mortgage. I worry about my grandchildren that they could take a wrong …
