This could help with students struggling with mental health

I have had struggles with "stinking thinking" in the past. I'm sure some of you had similar thoughts about yourself. This type of thinking has to do with low self-esteem, low self-worth and bleak thoughts about yourself. After reading "Coddling of the American Mind, by Lukianoff and Haidt, I explored modern Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Plus, Lukianoff and Haidt recommend the book "Feeling Good." by Dr. David Burn. Below is a Tedx talk by Dr. Burn that discusses the book. I will be honest. The Tedx talk about the book seems too good to be true. I can say that I am currently listening to this book and it seems to help me be happy.
