Some say that the best cure for a hangover is the hair of the dog that bit you'. This questionable logic is probably the reason why alcoholism has become so rife. Why, if something has given you a problem, would you hope to solve that problem by making the problem even bigger? But there may be a few other areas of life where this principle has some merit. It is possible, that what you need is actually just to invest a little more time and energy in a situation that you are beginning to feel you have had enough of because it is not people who hurt you it is your own foolishness,your own mind,your own emotions.
