then you can benefit from the 12 Steps to Happiness:

• My unhappiness outweighs my happiness and makes me feel down, sad, depressed, lethargic and gloomy.
• I have made many mistakes in my life and I don't deserve to be happy. I just don't see any way out of the sadness trap I am in.
• I am fed up with being unhappy and I am committed to putting in a serious effort to change my mental state and to start feeling happy. You've heard of lets do lunch? Well, this is "Let's do happy".

Some of the strategies and techniques found in the 12 steps to happiness are found in a book by Sarah Chana Radcliffe called Teen Esteem, published by Targum Press. Please visit her web site at www.sarahchanaradcliffe.com
