In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Everyone makes mistakes. If you're able to accept this rather than getting angry or frustrated, you'll become less controlling. Being concerned about other people screwing up can increase your need to micromanage a situation.  If you see someone make a mistake, put yourself in their shoes. Remember a situation where you screwed up in a similar fashion. It probably wasn't the end of the world, and sometimes you need to let people make their own mistakes. For example, your spouse forgot to pick up a prescription from the pharmacy. You've probably made similar mistakes before. While running back out to the store last minute was an inconvenience, it likely wasn't a huge deal. People with controlling tendencies think their reality is the right reality. You may feel you have the right organizational style at work. You may even think your emotional reactions are the "right" reactions while other people are reacting "wrong." Throughout the day, remind yourself that everyone's point of view is valid. For example, maybe you like to start tasks early. Another co-worker tends to put things off, but always does a good job. This strategy may work for them, even if it does not work for you. Open communication can help you see where other people are coming from, allowing you to get out of your own head. Talk to friends, family members, and co-workers regularly about how they're handling a given task or situation. The more you know about another person's perspective, the less need you'll feel to control that person.
Summary: Have compassion for other people's mistakes. Recognize your reality is biased. Communicate more with others.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Your doctor can run tests to determine if you have a hormonal imbalance and to detect nutrient deficiencies. An underlying nutrient deficiency may be to blame for your hormonal imbalance. For example, if you are deficient in iodine, then this may be affecting your thyroid. Birth control does more than simply halt reproduction. The pills contain synthetic hormones that are capable of balancing out high levels of estrogen and low levels of progesterone. Ask your doctor if this might be an appropriate treatment for you. Keep in mind that there are risks and potential side effects of taking birth control. Discuss these with your doctor before deciding if this is right for you. Hormone replacement therapy is the prescription equivalent of over-the-counter hormone supplements. Menopausal women are occasionally treated with doses of estrogen, progesterone, or a progestin-estrogen combination.  You may have the option of taking hormones in the form of pills, a patch on the skin, a cream, or an intra-uterine device. Some common side effects of hormone replacement therapy medications may include bloating, leg cramps, breast tenderness, headaches, indigestion, mood swings, depression, back pain, and vaginal bleeding. Testosterone therapy may be an option if you are male and have low testosterone. Low testosterone in men can contribute to sleep problems, weight gain, depression, and reduced libido. If you have been experiencing these symptoms, then talk to your doctor about testosterone replacement therapy.  Your doctor will need to run tests to confirm that low testosterone is the issue. Keep in mind that there are risks to taking testosterone, such as enlarged prostate, sleep apnea, decreased sperm count, acne, enlarged breasts, and blood clot. Discuss these risks with your doctor before starting treatment. Most antidepressants work by balancing out serotonin levels, which drop in response to low estrogen levels. Some have also proved moderately effective in reducing hot flashes in hormonally-imbalanced, menopausal women. You might consider taking an antidepressant if you are experiencing symptoms of depression as a result of your hormonal imbalance. Keep in mind that antidepressants may have other side effects. Discuss these with your doctor as you decide whether or not antidepressants are right for your situation.
Summary: Talk to your doctor if you suspect a hormonal imbalance. Start on an oral contraceptive. Go on menopausal hormone replacement therapy. Ask your doctor about testosterone therapy. Ask your doctor about anti-depressants along with hormone therapy.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Figure out how deep the hook is stuck in your skin. If the hook is stuck deep in the tissue, simply removing the barb and pushing the hook through will not work. If this is the case, you will need to an alternative method to remove the hook. If the hook is stuck in deeply, take a foot-long piece of fishing line and make a loop around the bend of the hook. Try to do this without moving the hook around too much. You don’t want the injury to hurt more or get the hook stuck in deeper because you were being careless. Hold string in one hand and push down on the eye of the hook with the other hand. Essentially, you are trying to keep the hook exactly where it is for the moment. Again, make sure you don’t push the hook in deeper when applying pressure to the eye of the hook. Whoever has the hook caught in his skin is not going to like what comes next. Have him focus on something else, look away, or tightly close his eyes. You may want to have the individual take a shot of alcohol, if available, to help take the edge off of the pain. Pushing down on the eye of the hook keeps the barb from ripping a much larger hole on the way out. While still applying pressure to the eye of the hook, yank as hard as you can on the fishing wire you attached to it. This will rip out a sizable chunk of skin, but the hook will come with it.  Be aware the hook can spring out with a lot of speed. Make sure the remover and bystanders are as clear as possible from the trajectory of the removed hook. Irrigate the wound as soon as the fish hook is removed by pouring clean water, wound cleanser, or saline solution on it. Let it bleed freely for a minute or so. Once the wound has been irrigated, make sure to hold pressure on or below the cut to stop severe bleeding. Make sure to apply pressure for five minutes to 30 minutes after ripping the hook out. If bleeding has not slowed by then, you may need to seek medical assistance.
Summary:
Assess the wound. Attach fishing wire. Apply pressure to the hook. Distract the patient. Yank the string. Apply pressure.
