    Time Out New York / Issue 643 : Jan 24–30, 2008
    Get Your $#*! Together Month, Part 4

    Get sane

    Man, you are messed up, huh? That’s okay—so is everyone else in New York. Yet this nutty city can actually help you get centered, and we’ve got therapists on hand for anyone who really needs some assistance. Come on in, lie down and let it all out.

    City counsel: New York is loud, dirty and hectic. But it also offers a rainbow of opportunities for getting sane, whether you’re all about grounded psychological methods or nuts for the artsy, New Age stuff.
    Poll: What's your insanity threshold?: Here is a list of New York…inconveniences. Quirks, if you will. Tiny little warts on the face of our otherwise glorious metropolis. Rate these aggravations by how crazy they make you.
    Meltdown meter: This city takes its toll, but are you acceptably grouchy or nearing total collapse? Answer these questions for a TONY diagnosis.
    Block it out: Forget the Botanical Gardens—busy professionals reveal more creative places for melting stress.
    Couch surfing: HBO gets inside your mind with its latest drama, In Treatment.
    All up in her business: Our coworker needed therapy yet refused to go for years. So we brought the therapist to the office. Below, the hair-raising (and hair-pulling) tale.
    No excuses: If you know you need therapy, stop convincing yourself otherwise.
    Quiz: Know your disorders!: Admit it, you love to play amateur psychiatrist with your friends. But can you identify these disorders based on their clinical descriptions in DSM-IV-TR (the official professional reference guide)?
    Depression-proofing: Ward off even a hint of the blues with these scientifically proven happy-making strategies.
    The you’re-loved self-esteemizer: Got a problem? Feeling depressed? There, there, don’t fret! Download this printable PDF to find your path from woe to serenity.
