Why Do People Have Problems Anyway?
There are many, many reasons and theories. What is most important to know is that psychological problems are real, they are often caused by multiple factors, and the causes of the problems do not determine the solution. Causes are usually psychological, physical, and social.
There are biological causes or genetic predispositions, psychological causes, and social or environmental causes and triggers. It is almost always impossible to know what is the proportions of various factors in a specific situation. Those that spend a lot of time trying to figure out all the causes may not be spending their time in the most productive manner. Why is this so?
The cause of the problem is often unrelated to the solution to the problem.
A problem that is 90 percent biological is often solved in the identical manner as a problem that is 90 percent psychological.
