Why do so many attorneys struggle with mental health issues like depression?
The possible causes are many: pressure, deadlines, competition, burnout, etc. Or maybe it's just CLE?
I opened a promotional mailer today from the good folks at the Pennsylvania Bar Institute (and they really are good folks - I've been privileged to serve on their faculty a couple of times) and was greeted with these uplifting CLE course options:
The Dead Man's Rule
Death and Taxes
Hot Topics in Oil and Gas Law
Seriously, I don't care who you are or how happy you were, if you spent three days attending this trio of seminars, you'd be reaching for the anti-depressants!
What less-than-exhilarating CLE topics are being offered in your jurisdiction?

Oh this made me laugh... I'm actually seeking for hot topics for a CLE as a fundraiser for legal aid programs in my state, but I just wanted to thank you for my laugh of the morning.
