The actual help for psychological problems doesn’t always help in time for Xmas.
Mike Nichols and Elaine May do the situational stand up “Merry Christmas, Doctor” that flips the script and makes the psychologist more disturbed than the patient. Hilarious contraposition for 1962. Perhaps doesn’t age well.
In “Christmas Freud” Yulenog & Nathan Kuruna mumble through an emerging parody. They get better in their novelty career.
Advising Joseph, David Wood’s ‘ROCK NATIVITY’ includes the tune “Don’t Be Afraid“, nudging the old man into nuptials with the preggo teen. Angelic advice.
Therapy can be gras roots, too. A Harris & Hart Holiday propose a cure for what troubles us with “Christmas Hands“. Folk anthem. And pretty damn funny.
Evoking ’70s easy listening perfection, The Free Design advise “Close Your Mouth (It’s Christmas)“. Put your feelings in a jar, kiddo.
For all the expectations you could never meet, here’s a “Gift Receipt” warble The New Anxiety. Not so much Freudianism as it is Retail Therapy. In metaphor at least. Personable easy listening.
If you follow Endiamonds simple indie song steps you may “Lose Every Inch of Your Sorrow“. This weighty loss program is not for every one. Consult your doctor if despair persists.
Garrison Bailey’s cure when determining that “No One Should Cry on Christmas” is the original Nativity tale. Read ’em and don’t weep. Sanctimonious pop.
L’Resorts exhorts Just Don’t in their layered “No Tears“. Carib pop reminiscent (for me) of Timbuk3. Which means i like it.
Tigger from Pooh helps Noodle Noggin’s prescription for “Santa’s Mental Altiitude“. It seems merely clapping hands does the trick. It’s the Tinkerbell Effect for this kidsong.
Also bossy, “Wintrvention” seems to be a will power recommendation from The Classic Brown. Matter over mind comes in the form of military march pop here.
Back to the professionals! The Therapy Sisters round up “The Twelve Days of Analysis” with a lightning round of courses. Hope it helps.
