Special note: Hello! I am the author of this website. I would be grateful for a small favour, which will take you only a few seconds, before you access this website. In addition to running this medical equipment website, I am also interested in the psychology of how our minds can think in certain faulty ways which can cause us to be “unhappy”. I would like to make a free website that describes types of faulty thinking and explains simple mental tools that one can use to change such thinking.
As a first step, I need to choose a nice name for the website. Most website names are already taken, but I have managed to find the names shown in the survey below. However, I am not sure which name is the best and I will be very grateful if you will help me to choose by clicking on the name you think is best in the survey below. i.e. the name that you think that you are more likely to share with your friends. I know it is a rather strange request, but your choice will really help me decide! Thank you.
