The Self-Help Section's Therapy Session

The Fiction section overheard the Self-Help books having a group therapy session. 'I feel like I'm always giving but never receiving,' sobbed 'How to Set Boundaries.' 'Nobody ever finishes me,' wept 'The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.' 'I keep getting returned,' sniffled 'Letting Go of Attachment.' The Fiction section whispered to Poetry: 'Should we tell them the irony, or let them figure it out on their own?' Poetry shrugged: 'Give it / a few / stanzas.'

The Self-Help Author's Crisis

A self-help author walked into a therapist's office looking devastated. 'What's wrong?' the therapist asked. 'I just finished writing my 47th book on overcoming procrastination,' he sighed. 'And?' 'It took me fifteen years.' The therapist nodded sympathetically. 'Have you tried reading any good books on the subject?' The author burst into tears: 'I can't—I'm too busy writing them!'
