Summary
Alrighty, folks! Got another 3 questions to answer for you today. First off I wanted to say thanks for the recent influx of questions. I have many to choose from, which is awesome. Keep sending them in!
As a reminder, you can find info about my books at hardcoreselfhelp.com or by looking up hardcore self help on Amazon.
So here are the questions covered in this episode:
- Should I take my friend up on an offer of hypnotherapy/NLP?
- How can I manage my obsession over the news and fear of the current global climate?
- Should I be worried about medicating my 8 year old child for serious psychiatric issues?
As always you can send me your questions to duffthepsych@gmail.com or @duffthepsych on all social media.

| 0:00.0 | All right, kiddos, this is your earmuffs warning. |
| 0:02.8 | This is not an over-the-top raunchy podcast, but if you've read my books, you know I'm not afraid |
| 0:07.2 | to use some colorful language. |

| 0:55.8 | Self Help Book Series is one that I wrote. |
| 0:58.7 | It's a self-published series and it's basically self-help for people that normally hate self-help, |

| 1:15.4 | themes and stuff like that, not like sexy adult themes, but just you know language and bad jokes and |
| 1:21.6 | stuff like that. |
| 1:22.8 | So if that's something you're not into, you know, |
| 1:24.9 | go ahead and skip it. |
