It really helped me, but at the same time, i learned balance b/c my critic erred on the side of optimism, which is equally life-sucking. I like your distinction between sounding a warning and grinding an axe. It's an important one. I read Learned Optimism after this guy I dated said I was too negative.

This is our book group pick for March. I don’t have high expectations. I’m worried that it’s going to devolve into liberal hysteria. Not that I have anything against liberals — I’m decidedly non-partisan — but I find hysteria on either end of the political spectrum to be tedious. Especially doomsday hysteria. Still, I’ll read the book and try to give it a chance…
