Mishka,I responded to your question on your thread.
Julia and all, I think that what I am about to do is referred to as highjacking. I apologize for this. I haven't started my own thread yet but wanted to tell you all about a VERY interesting program that was broadcast on our local public television station last night called "The Brain in Love". This is essentially a lecture given by a psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen. Over the past 10-20? years Dr. Amen has become involved in brain imaging research. He uses this technology to figure out what causes relationship problems in his patients. It was VERY interesting. If you can access any of his materials I think you would find it very interesting. He has a website (www.amenclinics.com/). One of the links at the bottom of the home page is "marital problems". This may sound a little hokey to many of you but I think it very well may have merit. I have a degree in neuroscience and did research in that field for 20 years so I find his work very interesting and exciting (nerd alert!).
Question of etiquette: I would like to provide more information about this for the group but don't want to highjack your thread. Is it very hard to start a thread? Do I need to start my own thread to share this?
