Seeking professional support for emotional pain, guilt, loss or loneliness is important, according to Winch, who makes a compelling case to practice emotional hygience - taking care of our emotions, our minds, with the same diligence we take care of our bodies.

Guy Winch is a licensed psychologist who works with individuals, couples and families. His most recent book is . He writes the popular Squeaky Wheel Blog on PsychologyToday.com, and is the author of The Squeaky Wheel: Complaining the Right Way to Get Results, Improve Your Relationships and Enhance Self-Esteem.
