And I'm like, no, no, I got to do work.

In between these two shows, I started doing extra work.

I was like, and then I took a deep breath.

I'm like, I feel really manic right now.

Because I had a really exciting day.

I'm going to crash around 9.

Don't overwork.

Don't overcommit.

Just do what you need to do.

Take a deep breath.

And then when the crash came at 9 p.m., I went to bed.

And it's only through that experience of being in the place...

taking that deep breath, knowing that the next day the mood changed, that I was able to have that check.

You call it cognitive behavioral therapy.

I call it taking a deep breath, but it's the same thing.

We are talking about feelings as facts.

Don't treat them that way.

I'm here with Gary Dierenfeld, a very handsome, very talented social worker and therapist friend of mine.

It is Therapy Thursdays on a Wednesday.

And when we come back, we'll continue this discussion about not necessarily trusting all your extreme moods to the point where you behave based on them.
